I find that for Vande Bharat Trains, it is mentioned as LHB rakes. Actually, Vande Bharat train sets are manufactured by ICF. Therefore, using a proper nomenclature for the rake should be appropriate.
You've brought up a good point about the terminology. While Vande Bharat trains are indeed manufactured by the Integral Coach Factory (ICF), they do use LHB (Linke Hofmann Busch) technology for their rakes. However, it's important to note that there might be confusion because traditionally LHB refers to a specific type of German-designed railcar, but it's also used more broadly to refer to certain design principles. In this case, the Vande Bharat trains utilize LHB design principles for their rakes despite being manufactured by ICF. So, referring to them as "ICF-built LHB rakes" does seem like an appropriate way to describe them, acknowledging both their origin and the technology they incorporate.

Hmm, with around 60/63% APJL means diversity of intermediate travellers were more. Can also be understood while observing the segmentation.
I am most impressed by how well ASN-DGR have managed to hold up inspite of having so many dedicated Volvo services to KOAA.
Volvos serve a particular niche segment of travellers. In terms of comfort and travel time, trains always have edge over buses in similar classes in this belt.
Buses serve different set of travelers and not end to end travellers. Passenger A travels from Esplanade or salt lake to Asansol or Durgapur but get down 5-10km before city centre. These passengers will save travel time in city and also money on local transport. Ease of my through apps anytime, seat selection are added features. Booking through IRCTC is a Hercules task enter captachas, OTP.
IRCTC seriously needs to tutor itself from private players on that part.
