Should this Shatabdi be replaced by Double Decker train, to carry more people and cheaper tickets ?
Also Give your reason for Yes / No....

* AC DD chaircar is inferior to normal AC chaircar in comfort, the same way as ACIII is inferior to ACII.
* cost per berth of ACIII coach (72berths/coach) is lesser than the cost per berth of ACII coach (54 berths/ coach), so fare of ACIII (33% extra berths)is 30% lesser than ACII. If cost of bedding is taken into account, the fare difference shall be more than 30%.
* Similarly cost per seat of ACDD coach (120 seats/coach) is lesser than the cost per seat of normal AC coach (78 seats

per coach),
* accordingly, the fare of AC DD (54% extra berths) should be about about about 50% lesser than normal ACC fare. Owing to complication in ACDD coach construction, this fare can be kept around 60%.
* Fare of congested ACDD seat from Mumbai to Ahmedabad in ACDD chair car is Rs 664/- against only Rs. 553/- for ACIIIE berth in GR and Rs. 313/- for non ac Sleeper berth.
* Clearly ACDD seats are overpriced and IR is trying to profiteer from it, this is the main reason for failure of most of ACDD trains. Most of people dislike these trains and prefer normal AC chaircar which costs the same but is much more comfortable.

Add one or two more points
*Atleast one can fit on the birth of a 3 tier coach. Comfort wise there is not a big difference between 3 AC or 2 AC . Problem only comes when you want to sit and the guy allotted with middle birth wants to sleep !!
* A man like me of 6'1'' in height just can not get fit on the CC seats of DD which even can not get recline properly... just traveled on the train day before yesterday...!! as did not had
...
more...
a comfortable choice of course it is way cheaper than the EX class they offer !!!
*IR should add DD coaches to normal LHB express trains and introduce them as Chair Car Economy class, it will increase the utility of these coaches!! these coaches can also be introduced in the shatabdis as economic options.. i think that will benefit the masses !!!
