One update: IR gonna procure 11000HP WAP frm Germany & will deploy in sme trains (BPL Shatabdi one of them)..to speed it up!!
Now this change whn gonna induced, will speed-up the train..cz acceleration will move quite high, with MPS remaining same!!

Answers to your points :-
1. I'm aware of it. Hence the stoppage time was reduced to 10 min long time back. However, the overall schedule did not change.
2. Yes, WAPx locos are fit for higher speeds (130+ km/h). But were they really running at that speed?

But an ordinary SF can do the job between Lalitpur and Bhopal in 2 hrs..?
avg of 101 kmph.. :D

1. Virar-BRC-ADI speed hike was linked with WCAM to WAP change!! Overall schedule gt changed whn MPS gt upgraded..so major change has been 10/15 mins..for UP/DN!!
2. WAP started running only whn track gt clearance for 130/120 MPS..WCAM on AC Traction will further hav reduced MPS (approx 90)!!
3. Avg Stoppage for Shatabdi: In between MTJ-GWL..its 172..5 stops (including MTJ-GWL)...Avg @ 38 Approx!! It recovers in between GWL-BPL!!
