Mumbai Bangalore needs to be connected via Duronto Express. Currently all trains take 24 hrs for this journey. This has to be reduced to 20 hrs. Can something be done about it?

I also agree with your statement. Trains take a lot of time in this section. This is due to a lot of single line tracks in this route. Railways should look at improving the connectivity between Mumbai and Bangalore. Even a Volvo bus takes about 16-18 hrs between Mumbai and Bangalore.
Almost 90% is the strech upto Pune is single line.However some thing can be done and speeded up. when 2163/64 can run the strech from MAS in 23 hrs Udyan can be reduced to 22 hrs.
travel by mumbai-pune-banglore expressway...definately reach within 18 hours..i personally took 14 hours from pune to banglore by maruti 800
But do buses go inside the Mumbai city like train. I heard they stop at places on the outer.
Anyway I think speeding train like udyan by 2 hrs wont solve any purpose as people anyway spend a day travelling. Reaching at 6PM or 8PM wont make a difference unlike if it was a morning time arrival train.

Dear Vaibhav,
Agree with your observations.
Same applies to Pune Bangalore travel also.
Due to inconvenient timings of rail and number of hours,many passengers travel by road.
Indian Railway should do something.
