I have couple of questions regarding this train. If they had to run a train with so many stoppages, then why not run a normal ICE service with extra unreserved coaches? Why a Janshatabdi with dedicated reserved coaches only. I am sure many pax from intervening stations would love some UR coaches in this train.

Second, why not an overnight train between Tanakpur and Delhi? If you are giving an only connection b/w two cities and it takes ~10 hrs, then the proper way is to try for an overnight one. Sure,

a day journey even takes one to Lucknow but that's because that train[ Tanakpur - Singrauli ] goes much furthur unlike this Jan Shatabdi which terminates much quickly.

Also, is this the slowest Jan Shatabdi in India? I have seen trains running in SER b/w KGP-HWH that stop at every station en route and have a higher average than this.

Agree
This train is the role model for red tape and wastage of assets in IR.Using 2 Dedicated LHB rakes for just 394 kms with no RSA.A passenger turned into a Jan Shatabdi which no one asked for.So much for hypocrisy NR to free PF and ruining intercity trains using RSA this occupies space at both points while NR keeps rejecting trains giving lecture about congestion

They should convert this train into a passenger train giving ICF rake instead these LHB rakes can be given to some other SF or M/E train.

Re# 5828604-6              
Majority of ICE trains in India run faster than this 'Jan Shatabdi'. With such a short rake, it seems so that not much daily demand is there either. With ~10 hrs journey, I wonder why they didn't go for an overnight train then. They had to connect Tanakpur with the national capital [the only other state capital that it is connected to with daily is Lucknow], but the choice chosen is bad. Sleeper coaches would be better in this regard. Atleast the upper berth passengers can sleep. And Side Lower in SL is way better than 2nd Sitting style.
