A connection between Chennai and Jaisalmer, via: Agra, Jaipur, Bikaner, Pokaran. This route avoids all loco reversals for Jaipur and saves time (Only 40 km long compared to regular MAS-JP route via Nagda; still maintaining around 36 hrs).
Reversal only at Pokaran enroute Jaisalmer.
Provide your suggestions and do flag.
Thank You.

My initial idea was to create a weekly train between Chennai and Jaipur. Currently the tri-weekly is running via Nagda, after Bhopal is having 2 reversals enroute Jaipur.
The route I have chosen is via Agra with no reversals needed and with almost same time, though 40 km more. Later after calculating the arrival time at JP, extended it to Jaisamer via Bikaner and not via Jodhpur, cause Jodhpur already has 2 trains from Chennai, while Bikaner has only one AC SF Exp. So this extension to Jaisalmer would connect Chennai with Pokaran (Reversal here), Bikaner too.
So
...
more...
primary purpose was to have a no reversal train from MAS till JP. Secondary was to connect Pokaran, Jaisalmer.

Give NLR, SEGM, BZU halt....you can also use the Bina - Guna - Ruthiyai - Kota route (shortest route between JP and MAS)

Sure.. will give haults there.
I did analyse the Kota route, which is a good option too. But reversal at Sawai Madhopur cannot be avoided.
So only chose Agra Cantt.
