I have a suggestion which will benefit Bangalore to Mumbai travellers. Pointwise explained below:
1. SWR to take over this train from CR and run upto LTT as SF.
2. YPR dep 2050 SUR 0815/0830 LTT arr 1530. This can return as LTT UBL express at 2030.
3. UBL LTT express arriving at LTT by 0700 can return as LTT YPR

SF departing at 1200. SUR 1900/1920 and YPR 0645.
Advantages include less idling of rake at Mumbai. Great advantage will be a SF train in Mumbai Bangalore sector. Entry and exit from Mumbai will be in off peak hours. LTT can receive 23 coach train.
Railways can also explore LTT UBL extension upto Bangalore. Something like YPR 0930 UBL 1615/1630 LTT 0700. LTT DEP 2030 UBL 1015/1030 YPR 1715. Now LTT UBL is a 14 coach train, but if coupled with YPR SUR LTT train as proposed above, it will become 23 coach train. So no quota loss for Hubli Belgaum also. If this also materialises, we can get 2 daily trains - one via KLBG SUR and another via DVG UBL to Mumbai.
Opinions please.

Main hurdles for Bangalore Mumbai trains officially are: NO slot in Mumbai during peak hours. So I suggested that Hubli train which already has slot can be used. UBL rake is idle for whole day in Mumbai. No slot problem at LTT during non peak hours. So I proposed that UBL rake can leave by noon as my proposed train. Rake can enter LTT by 1530 can leave as UBL train.
Between 1000 to 1600 no slot issues in Mumbai.
To give you an idea,

SR is planning Netravati and Matsyagandha RSA at LTT. Netravati will arrive at 1300 and go as Matsyagandha at 1500. Matsyaganadha arriving at 0700 will go as Netravati at 1145. Just tweaking of TT slightly gave good speed up for Netravati.
2. Another example:SR's NCJ CSMT trains got a fantastic slot and speed up now. 1910 arrival at CSMT and departure 2030, just PF turnaround. Earlier the rakes used to be idle from 2000 till next day1200.

I thought of giving throwing some light on similar lines.

Real reason for not getting Bangalore to Mumbai trains: Bus operators!!. Of course this will not be accepted by railways.
