10 back to back trains from AYC to LKO in 8 hours. Not counting all the Astha Specials and Freights... When this section was single diesel line, trains would get delayed. Now that it is double electric line, trains are getting delayed even more 😂. It is paradoxical but I attribute it to unfinished platforms, many PSRs and congestion of Astha Specials. Also trains add 1 hr delay from Zafrabad - Jaunpur due to 7km single line and heavy congestion.

I wonder when this route will become functional and run trains on...

time.. Even now they keep adding VBs after VBs when it's evident that this route is completely unfit for that being the longest, slowest yet the busiest of 3 available routes b/w BSB-LKO.
