RailFans don't miss their train. Why? Because they go to the station HOURS before the actual departure of their Train - to watch OTHER trains depart. - Prince Maan

I'm from Rewa (for those who would call me an outsider).
As expected, no fully air-conditioned train within Madhya Pradesh would ever be successful.
Even during Diwali, it's barely getting filled.
Other times, on average it has more than 35 seats available in executive class and 350-400 seats available in chair car.
People in Madhya Pradesh are extremely stingy, they don't like paying premium fare for daytime service, they'd rather travel cheap overnight or in sleeper coaches. Even my extended family, who have enough money, travel in sleeper coaches of Rewanchal Express while I travel in AC 2 Tier of the same train.
It was a bad decision. It would have made much more sense to run a service between Jabalpur and Varanasi. This is painful to see, all because of the ego of WCR Jabalpur Division.
I know seats normally get filled last minute or on the spot in Madhya Pradesh, but even for that, there's a limit.
Give it to Bhopal, let them run services to Ahmedabad, Surat, Lucknow, or wherever possible. This is a waste of resources, I'm not even sure about the summer season.

Main Rewa se hun (jin logo ne mujhe baharwala kehna hai).
Jaise hi tha, Madhya Pradesh mein koi bhi fully AC train kabhi safal nahi ho sakti.
Diwali ke time bhi use bas thoda bhara hota hai.
Dusre samay average mein 35+ EC seat aur 350-400 CC seat khali hoti hai.
Madhya Pradesh ke log bahut kharchi karne wale kanjus hai, din ke samay premium kiraya dene ka unka kaam nahi hai, woh raat bhar sasti ya sleeper mein hi safar karna pasand karenge. Meri badi faujdar family Rewanchal Express ke sleeper coach mein safar karti hai jabki main wahi train ki AC 2 tier mein safar karta hun.
Yeh ek buri faisla tha. Jabalpur aur Varanasi ke beech ek service chalana bahut zyada matlab banata. WCR Jabalpur division ki ego ki wajah se yeh takleefdeh hai.
Main janta hun seat normally akhir mein ya poore spot par bhar jati hain Madhya Pradesh mein lekin uske bhi koi had hoti hai.
Use Bhopal ko de do, unhe Ahmedabad, Surat, Lucknow ya jahan bhi ho sakti hai, service chalani chahiye. Yeh ek resource ki barbadi hai, summer season ke liye bhi mujhe poora vishwas nahi hai.
