As many passengers complained, fast connectivity between Howrah and Durgapur and Asansol is the need of the hour in the morning, and vice versa in the evening. There is a concentration of trains in UP direction during evening times and DN direction is morning times, leaving the only train, Black Diamond Express heavily crowded. Sometimes it becomes extremely difficult for the passengers of intermediate stations to board the train.
Morning -
Black Diamond Express HWH 0615 DGR 0857 ASN 0940
Hool
...
more...
Express HWH 0640 DGR 0915
Sitamarhi Express SDAH 0600 DGR 0958 ASN 1058 (Pathetic Train)
(Both running through Main line, taking 1 hour extra. Not mentioning Ranchi Shatabdi as it is not for daily-passengers.)
Evening -
Mayurakshi Pgr HWH 1625 DGR 1913
Coalfield Express HWH 1720 DGR 1924 ASN 2010
ASN Intercity SDAH 1700 DGR 2003 ASN 2100
Agnibina Express HWH 1820 DGR 2023 ASN 2125
The same is the case while returning from DGR/ASN. This is even worse, as, during evening, Black Diamond is the only train, leaving it to be extremely crowded.
What, according to you, should be the alternative to avoid this?

I would rather have a Hwh-Gaya Intercity. Hwh 6.30 but ot Black Diamond in between to reach Dhn at 10.30 and Gaya at 1.30 pm. Return Gaya 3 pm and Hwh 10pm.

Re# 4494696-2              
Agreed. That'd be a hit train. But on the other hand, towns like Hazaribagh, Giridih have no connection with Kolkata yet. With new tracks laid, it's high time to introduce an intercity. Also, Barkakana will have a daily connection with Kolkata which it lacks.
