Train reaches vijayawada at 10.45. It stands idle until 17.30. This train can be extended until Kakinada easily with 2 or 3 stops at eluru, tadepalligudem, rajahmundry. The train departs vijayawada at 11.00 and reaches kakinada by 14.00. Then it would start again at 14.15 and reach vijayawada by 17.15. It is practically easy and possible. 3 Hours journey time is possible for 212 km journey since the Rake is LHB.
3 hours easily possible bro.

This are just scheduled times. In reality, most trains do not meet that schedule regularly. The same trains also have a lot of slack between AKP VSKP to ensure that the schedules are met.
Even if the train has LHB coaches, it will still run with with the same locos and the same speed restrictions. It's not a matter of distance. It's a matter of restrictions. Most trains get detained at RJY outer or crawl between Godavari and RJY. On many occasions I have experienced aggressive runs for trains till KVR, only to be trolled afterwards.

am not saying it is not possible. I am saying it is not realistic and cannot be maintained on a regular basis.
Nonetheless, 3 hours for BZA-COA is not possible in a regular run. Even if the train is allotted the schedule, it will run delayed by 20-30 min on most occasions. It will need special priority on every single run to maintain such a schedule.
