One has an MPS of 130, the other one has the MPS of 160. Both have 2 halts, STILL the difference between End to End Average Speed is JUST 1km/hr.
After Bhopal Extension woh difference bhi shayad nahi bachega.
So should we start calling Kanpur Shatabdi as Kanpur Gatimaan ?

Re# 3508822-28              
If I remember correctly I've used Gatimaan 3 times.
2 times when it used to terminate at Agra and 1 time after it started getting terminated at Jhansi (used Bengaluru Rajdhani for return).
Maybe it's me but neither I nor my Family Members/Friends found any SIGNIFICANT difference between the two.
Although I haven't tried Bhopal Shatabdi yet, I've used Pune Shatabdi, Kanpur Shatabdi, Kalka
...
more...
Shatabdi and Chandigarh Shatabdi many times.
But my experience is mine and your experience is yours, you must have observed something significant.

That's why I created this Blog, my friends also pointed out the same thing. If average speed is similar to other trains or even slower in Agra- Jhansi section as pointed out by Yash, Divyanshu and Mishra Sir. How does Gatimaan justify being "Gati"maan ?
This train was supposed to open the doors for introduction of Semi High Speed Trains on other routes without slack, but it itself is suffering from slack.

Traveled in Gatiman Yesterday,
I gives a whooping average of 120 Kmph between AGC - FDB !
There is a good slack between GWl - AGC as train arrived 10 - 12 mins before time at AGC.
Although due to Golden Temple Mail we arrived late by 6 mins at Nzm.
