Jan 17 2019 (21:30) 22221/Mumbai CSMT - Hazrat Nizamuddin Rajdhani Express
Nashua NH USA
Nashua NH USA 950 blog postsThe schedule for 22221 is perfect. Just recently, I was analyzing various trains from Mumbai to ET and realized that the ALD Duronto is nearly 40 mts faster than AC Exp. (22109) from BSL to ET. So, this Raj schedule is similar to AC except for a 25 mt speed-up in the BSL-BPL section. I suspect it has been given a 3 hour 55 mt run from BSL to ET, so that it will cross ET around 0:40. 22222 is also faster than 22110 in similar fashion.
As far as halts are concerned, I am not too happy about Jalgaon. I don't feel JL is big enough to warrant a Raj halt...

Bhai Itarsi aur Hoshangabad ek hi level ki cities hai bus district h.q. ka fark hai...
Good points! And yes, when Howrah Duronto can be diverted for a useless, political halt at Jasidih, then Jalgaon halt makes more sense. But I am happy to see the Rajdhani totally skipping Bhusaval - only train to do so.
