Feeling bored in the Train - talk to a RailFan. You'll WISH the train gets late.

I think CR should actively consider a few minor changes to this train as under:-

1. The terminal should be shifted to CSTM.

2. Twin locos...
more...

should haul this train upto IGP as under to bring down the loco change at Igatpuri to5 mins:
a. WCAM - WAP 7 (with panto down in idle mode) - Rake will be an ideal CC
b. After reaching IGP, 5 mins are taken for detaching bankers while at the same time WCAM is detached. At this point of time, P7 should shift its gear to Active mode from Idling one by raising Pantos....
c. Thus banker n WCAM detachment & air pressure and brake checking and P7 activation will take place in mere 5 minutes saving 15 minutes for OTP...

3. For 22110, Only WCAM will be attached and WAP 7 shut down cutting down time to 10 minutes sufficient for it to cover its stretch upto CSTM.

4. 22109 will depart CSTM @ 14.15 hrs, 11041 will now leave CSTM at 14:20 hrs.
