Which (has been/will be) the best initiative by IR ?
Whether it is technological advancement, electrification, modernization or introduction of new trains, which seems most important to you and needs to be done first or is the best by far ?

* Doubling is definitely more important than electrification but it is not given in the option.
* Today Golden Quadrilateral of IR gives about two third of revenue and may be more profit than the total revenue surplus of IR, as it makes up for the losses incurred by IR in unprofitable branch lines and NG/MG lines.
* My first choice is DFC project which is the best way of doubling (quadrupling) the GQ (the most congested and profitable routes of IR).

* Today electrification is important and its importance will increase as the electrified route kilometerage increase and non-electrified route shall start existing in patches, there by making diesel haulage costlier due to lower utilisation factor of locos as well as loco pilots and losses due to frequent loco changes from E to D and vice versa..
