Jun 16 2019 (11:36) 12274/New Delhi - Howrah Duronto Express | ASN/Asansol Junction (7 PFs)
Rajz~
Rajz~ 3600 blog postsThe absolute beauty of GC. 12274 which was diverted departed ddu with a delay of 4 hrs 37 min but still reached asn with a delay of 1hrs 47min. Won't say that the run was of duronto standard taking 6hrs 30min but still the difference between GC and main line is depicted from this run. GC where the slack is almost negligible for any train and main line where slack is given in kilos to maintain the punctuality index. No wonder why this section can boast of good punctuality among the whole ECR.

Even if the crew is changed at Dhn, still another crew change will take place at Asn as for the upward journey, crew was given by Asn and not Dhn. Actually I strongly believe that a single crew took the charge of the train from Ddu to Asn, it's a very common practice for diverted trains, LP, Alps get overtime for these works as intermediate zone don't provide fresh crew members in 99% cases.
And regarding 8hrs working work, crew of 12305/06 takes the train directly from Hwh to Pnbe and vice versa which has a working time of 7-7.5 hrs, so it's very much possible to have a work of 8hrs or more in special cases
