A lot of trains tend to get delayed at the zonal handover point. You can see in the schedule that pretty much all the trains at that time covered AKP-WAT on an average in 1 hour. (Only the BZA-WAT passenger and KZJ-WAT passengers took more than 1.5 hours for this distance).
Compared to that, now the fastest train between AKP-BZA (trains which halt at AKP) is the MTM-VSKP passenger which takes 1 hour 5 minutes and pretty much all trains are given around 1hr 30 minutes on an average for this section. This is the real culprit that is slowing down most of these trains.
