All General Coaches of this train have been moved to the last side of this train when traveling from Visakhapatnam to Tatanagar. This has caused a lot of confusion among passengers traveling by General Coaches. When this train is about to arrive, passengers are unable to know whether General Coaches will be in the front side or at the last side. Even the station staff are unable to provide accurate information regarding this matter on the spot. There are several stoppages of this train, where the platform length is short and unable to accommodate the full train. In such cases, all General Coaches remain out of platform. So, those passengers who know the placement of General Coaches are also unable to climb into them. Hence all passengers taking General tickets are compelled to travel in the Sleeper Coaches. General coaches should be at both ends of the trains and their number...

I stayed 25 years at SGRL. Though I was not interested in trips as it was same all the time. Patna Exp, Triveni express, Shaktipunj, SGRL BPL superfast, NZM superfast were primarily used by me.

The train can be ran as KSR-Vasco panchaganga express. It really need to be extended. Needless to say it would be a connectivity not just for Bangalore people but also for chennai people if we could catch this by taking intercity or something. Vasco is also in SWR so this train could be extended easily

I feel like that should be fine. They can start RSA train as Karwar Vasco special and run it till Vasco
I dont personally object such RSA. but on generic note, TAT should given that it wont delay both sides. If such is possible no issues..
This has become almost the perfect train for Uttara Kanara passengers ever since it stopped going to MAQ and permanently got diverted via Kunigal. If only more coaches could be accommodated without hampering the timings.
There'd be more seats available at 16586 from Murdeshwar and 17310 from Madgaon, but most people would rather go board a train from Talguppa railway station instead.

Sir, Answer for 16515/16 Query is exactly in your first para itself - Bypass. Anything entering Mangalore Central or Mangalore Jn. would mean lots of time consumption due to Huge yards + Zonal Changeover point from SWR to SR & SR to KR & other formalities like Reversal/Attachment/Detachment, Checks, switch lines & turnouts speed etc. Udupi & Specially Uttara Kannada People least prefer because of Huge runtime & late arrival at enroute stations in KR due to least priority. Few from Udupi District do get down at Bantawala/Kabakaputtur & switchover to Buses to reach Home earlier then train.

Your opinion about Talguppa holds good. Almost Decade back, when Panchganga was non-existent & 16523/24 were running, Myself commuting to Blore from Kumta use to go to Talguppa & take 16228 to reach Blore faster & vice~versa. Even People from Byndoor/Kundapur taluks would do same.
Regarding connecting train to 16511, My opinion would be better to swap slots of 16511 with 16585, such that 16585 starts early from Blore take 16511 slot from Hassan, arrive early at Mlore & leave early towards Murudeshwar. That would also mean early arrival at Murudeshwar &...

Having more AC coaches than non AC coaches in Express trains specifically is definitely a break with the tradition. That's what I said, yes UPA government might've increased the number of AC coaches but in no way AC coaches were more than non AC coaches.
Do you even understand what I said? What can opposition use against Lalu? He kept the fares same for 5 years. Which is great as a populist measure, but unsustainable for long term financial health. Now if someone suddenly increase fares across the board, opposition will be up in arms. Applies to both sides. Even if there is a INDIA alliance govt, no one will dare to increase fares.
Well if you keep increasing, at some point no of AC coaches will be more. At start of UPA era, most trains had 2 or 3 AC, at end of 10 years UPA, most had 6-7 AC. Now after 10 years NDA most have 10-11 AC. Most premium trains introduced by UPA - Garib Rath, AC express, Duronto all max. AC.
What I'm saying is since the present government did not had or have enough guts right now to increase the fare of train tickets at this time or in previous terms (when they had more than half of Lok Sabha seats single-handedly) + inflation is low than 2000s too because of the fear of retaliation they'll face from opposition.
Why do we expect Lalu to raise the fare of train tickets when he was an RM in a coalition government which lacked enough seats to make a government single-handedly. + inflation...

That's what you aren't understanding. Before Lalu's time it was a tradition to increase fares every year by small amount. So no one would have bothered if he raised in line with earlier RMs. But he broke from tradition to stop the yearly fare increase to get political brownie points. Dinesh Trivedi tried to reinstate that tradition and got fired immediately. So now no RM would have the guts no matter if he has majority, coz he will be removed by his own party and opposition will pounce on this.
