Technically every thing is feasible but mentally their is a blockage... EMD can easily go 160+ Km/Hr with an LHB coach... Is their any thing so tough in it... As RDSO has already given the speed certificate for this train... No...

This train now gets to run at 130kmph between HWH and BWN and maybe upto Khana Jn. Long ago there was news about trial runs of 10 coach LHB Shatabdi with an EMD between HWH and BWN which was successful. The trial was conducted with the rake of HWH RNC Shatabdi on a Sunday.
