The purest enjoyment of life - be a RailFan.

Jstb or ice both same in my opinion in terms of rake or coach
New jstb can introduced if required in some sevtions
But ice is good as gen coaches will be there
Still some sections across india require ice's or jstb's

If MAS - BZA JS too has similar problem, then SR is surely running short of Jan Chaircars!!

---

I guess they dont have jstb livery backup or ectra coaxhrs easy way is to attach normal ice coach

JS charges much higher fare in comparison to ICE. Atleast in Kerala, JS doesn't make much of difference as the train stops at stations like SRTL, AWY, MVLK etc. So it is always better to have Inter City Express trains without specialised coaches. Atleast Railways can augment them much easliy.

And usually 3A coaches instead of Jan A/c Chaircars!
