This slope seems to show that these tracks may not support 160 Kmph for Rajdhani/Durontos Trains in the years to come... kindly post some photos from the Grand Chord Route, especially of the #EDFC Project :-)

Rajdhanis nvr touch 110 in the Gujhandi -Gurpa section... which is the actual ghat section. The max speed reached by all are about 60... for SF and M/E it is 40. In this region your mobile networks do not work. Even Airtel fails here. Not even a single line of the tower shows here. Regular travller of this route. Hence experience counts
