more over , it will take minimum 45min to go VSKP and join back in main line again which includes reversal/crew change/water filling and all the stuff that happens in this meantime...VZM was given a 10min halt when it was skipping VSKP so that water filling and other stuff can be done...and at that time, you don't have these many stops between VZM-BZA...not halts got added, and additional burden of 45min in terms of operations to go inside and come back to join main line which obviously adds to the wound ..

in general , for every halt , even thought trains halts just 1/2 min in stations, it takes 10min min in a overall fashion to enter and exit station including halt time...if we count all of that then current schedule is tooo tight to maintain such a aggressive speeds now..because more trains are keep getting added..freight traffic and then passengers ..i don't think this will change even after getting a 3rd line or 4th line between VSKP-BZA ...may be they are going to give a parallel run in stretches but when it comes to arrivals , the pattern will go on ...
