After hours of brainstorming about how can there be a direct dedicated passenger link b/w NZM and KLK, finally worked the RSA out.
.
The RSA is (as can be seen on the nameboard) b/w 54531/32/39/40/41/42 in this order: 54541-54540-54539-54542
But then what about 54531/54532?
.
...

>Six to eight coaches of 54539 (NZM-UMB Passenger) get detached from it when it terminates at UMB.
>They flee to Kalka as 54531 (UMB-KLK Shuttle).
>The remaining shorter rake goes to Meerut as 54542 (UMB-MTC Passenger).
>The same coaches return the next day as 54532 (KLK-UMB Shuttle).
>These get attached to the "shorter" 54541 (MTC-UMB Passenger) that went the previous day.
>This forms the "larger" 16 coach rake which returns as 54540 (UMB-NZM)
The cycle goes on.
*phew*

Yes indeed. More intelligence surfaces up when they use the idle lying LOCO of Kalka Mail for this shuttle, as claimed in earlier blogs. But I can't digest this dictum completely as multiple time have I spotted the HWH guy sleeping with the Mail rake at KLK itself all day long. The P7 that ferries this shuttle is some other guy.

Maybe because when they are short of locos they use klk mail's loco otherwise when the locos are avbl as per roster then they let the 'guy' take rest. :p
