I was going through the U.P. map, and thought an idea about making this station as the junction station, as shown in the map. This new route can also be the alternative to congested NDLS-CNB route, especially for CNB terminating trains, coming from NDLS side.
Example Shram Shakti Express, via GZB-MB-BE-HRI-ON-CNB. This overall route may take 8 hours for a superfast, but will improve the timings for NDLS-CNB pax of this train.
Also the trains from Farukhhabad (like JP-LJN Express) can come to Hardoi directly from Farukhhabad, skipping CNB (JP-CNB section...

It cannot be so strongly said that Railways will not invest in LKO-MB-NDLS route. Quite a few premium trains are currently running and some may also be introduced in future. So possibility is never out of equation. Where as talking about CNB-NDLS and it's so called speed up gradation to 160 kmph as you said, even if it upgrades to 200kmph, saturation is also a parameter. The section is super-saturated at present, and with the future speed-up it may come down a bit but newer trains will balance the saturation then. Lastly talking about upgradation of LKO-CNB section, the soil here is a typical one. It's more of a deposition of sediments Ganges carries from Himalayas which gets deposited in plains. It's tricky soil which doesn't allows massive speed-ups. Elsewise RB would have done that quite before. Speed-Ups could be a minor one, in this section. So, investing in MB route...
