absolute trash train. takes a longer route for unknown reasons. why cant it go to bhubaneshwar through mum-hwh line till sambalpur and then take the line towards cuttack. will save at least 10 hours journey time as its a complete double electrified route. not like the present one. unelectrified is still ok, but still single line

Number of trains are also available from Nagpur to Berhampur, Vizag etc.
The best favourable factor is saving in time (8-10 hrs, how much actual saving - somebody may re-confirm) and also saving in ticket cost to many passengers.
Note that many historical trains have shifted its route after opening up of Konkan Railway route in view of drastical reduction in km distance. Even TVC Rajdhani runs on this Konkan Route.
So for better purposes and by compromising formula, the train is better be converted to run for 3 three days via Nagpur route and 4 days via existing Secunderabad route.
