The NDLS-Kanpur-Mughalsarai corridor is probably the busiest one in the IR network. A study of the timetable reveals the following pattern of traffic:-
NDLS dep at 16.10, Kanpur 21.00/21.05, Allahabad 23.08/23.10 MGS 1.18/1.28
12250 Howrah Yuva Exp on Sundays, 12440 Ranchi Rajdahni Exp (via Gaya on Tuesdays and Fridays), 12878 Ranchi GR Exp (via Daltonganj on Wednesdays and Saturdays), 12454 Ranchi Rajdhani Exp (via Daltonganj on Thursdays).

They dont run up-close but have difference of 2-3 station in between them!!
I tried to catch view of non-stop view in these section (@ various combination of station-Etawah/Aligarh/Khurja/Dankaur/Cheonki or traveling in UP Train), but either train have had high gap or if trailing Rajdhani arrived close, it moved slowly or even stopped!!

Right. But I am amazed at the way IR manages to run so many trains at very close intervals.
There are loads of Freight Traffic too!!
Plus, per KM Automatic Signal ease to some extent & the MPS make it high cover-up zone!!
Further, No Raj reports dot-in-time @ CNB/ALD but make-up before/post MGS!!

I think much of this route is under auto signalling and additionally section size is small in this route to cater for dense load.

On top of this most of the high priority trains are hauled by WAP-5/7 kind of loco for faster clearence through section.
