y cant railway start a super fast express for Rajkot to mumbai in 11 to12 hours or less the distance of 727km from mumbai . since the line is double from mumbai to ahmemdabad and from ahmemdabad to rajkot single . mandovi express takes the distance of 765km in less 12 hours having full mumbai to madgaon (goa) single line.
A perfact janshatabdhi express can be run having the same time matching the time of madgaon janshatabdhi express from mumbai to madgaon and vice varsa

Re# 40869-1              
There is mis-matching of two routes ...in so far kms distance is concerned... one from Mumbai -Rajkot with that of Mumbai -Madgaon.
@ Plz Note that the distance between Mumbai CST to Madgaon appearing is 765 kms. However the train passes through Konkan Rly to the extent of around 440 kms but for the purpose of fare determination, it is jacked up to 615 kms. And thus, the total kms from Mumbai to Madgaon is shown as 765 kms as against distance of around 590 kms.
@ The distance
...
more...
is 590 kms.
The CST- Madgaon distance calculation is as under :-
CST to Dadar >> 9 kms
Dadar to Roha >> 137 kms
Roha to Madgaon (Konkan Route) >> 442 kms (As per Konkan Rly website)
The 442 kms jacked up by 40% to 619 [442 + 177].
Total kms >> 9 + 137 + 442 = 588 +177 = 765 kms
So the distance between Rajkot -Mumbai .... 727 kms
So the distance between Mumbai - Madgaon ....588 kms (actual)
The Madgaon distance is less by 139 kms and the difference in travel hours.
@ Regret for the confusion in kms as the Rlys have inflated Konkan route kms distance by 40% for fare determination purposes. The efforts are ongoing for displaying the correct kms distance in this website alonwith Rly determined kms. Till then, plz excuse. Thanks.
