When the Nagapur to Nagbhir Meter gauge line will be converted to Broad gauge works?Still now there is no official announcement by Railway authorities on this NGP-NAB section for converting meter gauge to broad gauge,So SECR officials should make this conversion as soon as possible which will be benefit for the delhi going trains,Balharshah-Nagbhir-Nagapur Line will acts as an alternate line for Balharshah-Sewagram-Nagapur Line.If any problem occurs on BPQ-SEGM-NGP Route,Those trains can be diverted via BPQ-NAB-NGP Route.But the entire stretch from BPQ-NAB-NGP route will be single line even after the conversion of meter gauge to broad gauge from NAB-NGP section it will be single broad gauge line,Diesel Engine traction and even NAB-BPQ section is also Single Line but Electrified.
The total distance...
more... from Balharshah to Nagapur Via Sewagram Jn is 208Kms and The total distance from Balharshah to Nagapur Via Nagbhir Jn is 228kms.
Balharshah to Nagbhir Single Broad gauge Electrified Line distance is 118kms and Nagbhir to Nagapur Single Meter Gauge Diesel Engine Line distance is 110kms,So the total distance from Balharshah to Nagbhir is 118+110=228Kms,Which is only 20 Kms more when compared to the BPQ-SEGM-NGP Route.
And moreover SEGM-NGP section distance of 76kms is fully congested with Passenger train traffic,Lot of passenger train delays will be occuring on this SEGM-NGP section.And Moreover MJRI-BPQ Section is having high goods traffic.To overcome this problem in future some of the Delhi bound trains should be diverted Via BPQ-NAB-NGP Route and the Entire stretch of Balharshah-Nagbhir-Gondia 250Kms Route should be doubled and even Nagbhir-Nagapur Line at a distance of 110Kms also need to be converted to Broad gauge and Doubled and Fully electrified.
and even Gondia-Balaghat-Nainpur-Jabalpur Route also needs to be electrified and Doubled,As of now from Balaghat to Nainpur Section Guage conversion works have been completed and Even Nainpur-Jabalpur Section is also under the process of conversion,I hope that the entire stretch Balaghat-Nainpur-Jabalpur Section will be commissioned as Broad Gauge line by the end of this december 2017.
After the commissioning of Jabalpur-Nainpur-Balaghat Line as a Broad gauge line,Some of the trains which are coming from Ayodhya/Allahabad/Varanasi/Patna and going towards south direction either to Hyderabad/Chennai/Tirupati/Tiruvananthapuram/Benga luru can be diverted Via Jabalpur-Nainpur-Balaghat-Gondia-Nagbhir-Balharsha h route which nearly reduces a distance of 277kms and travel time can also be reduced at a greater extent,When compared to the present route of Jabalpur-Itarsi-Amla-Narkher-Nagapur-Sewagram-Majr i-Balharshah Route which is highly congested with goods and passenger traffic.
So the load on the GT Route from Itarsi to Balharshah can be reduced
