UTTARANDHRARAILSEVA~ 1840 blog postsThis train 12775/12776 COCONADA express should be made a daily AC express train to increase the revenue of SCR as it is going to lose revenue rich ports of Machili patnam, Kakinada and Nizam Patnam. That will serve the passengers of Bhimavaram, Narsapur,Placol,Tanuku of West Godavari and also passengers of East Godavari district.
Tickets are easily available on Monday and Wednesday from SC and Tuesday and Thursday from KKD in lean season for 6 months except during summer, marriage season and festive holidays. There is lot of gap between demand and availability of berths in sleeper and GS and there are no alternative to Godavari and Gautami which are already packed with 24 coaches. So a SF with 4 3AC 8 sleeper and 6 GS 2 SLR triweekly will do better and during demand seasons 2 sleeper and 2 3AC can be added. This combo will be a win win for all classes of travellers and to railways for optimal utilisation of capacity.
