It just goes to showcase that just because a route exists, it doesn't mean you plow in a VB train onto it. Just look at the 33 kph speed for the last section of this train. Looks as if it's running on ancient lines that haven't been upgraded in eons. A better thing would be to run an ICE with the same timings and put in 8 AC coaches onto it via this route. It'll serve all kinds of pax on this route, will only be slightly slower [since VBs have faster acceleration] and most importantly, have a much higher carrying capacity.
