Yes Mr. Prasad you are right. But that one is not a composite one.
Railway is making real money out of it... the railways is over charging for this route between UMB-CDG-KLK.. The actual distance(By Rail) between UMB-CDG is 46 K.m but they charge for 67K.m and between CDG-KLK it is mere 26K.m and they charge for 37 K.m (Check trains at a glance or refer google maps distance fonder) !!!this is really a route where railways is covering all its loses ....... Same can be termed in case of kalka mail, it has numerous no. of stops b/w delhi - cdg , but it is charged for superfast however the sources say that after delhi , it is converted to normal express(or mail) train , den still why it is charged for superfast?
Sir Railway has a established system to calculate distance on different ground parameters:
Coaching
UMB CUMULATIVE DISTANCE>0.0 INTER - DISTANCE>>0
DHPR >34.22 >>6.57 from LLU
CDG >67.55 >>33.33
