RailFanning is a gift you give yourself. - Varun

What is the present composition?
This train has very high chances of getting regularised.......VZR-PURI has good response as overnight train.....but its RSA partner SHM-VZR not getting good response.

If atall planning to regularise it they should atleast make it tri weekly with better timing. There are nearly 50-60 buses daily leaving from Baripada side to Bhubaneswar . So demand is quite high . If planned properly railways can encash that crowd towards itself

Passengers are demanding Friday departure from both Shalimar to bhanjpur and Bhanjpur to Puri..... SHM-VZR on Friday is already approved in earlier years IRTTM but SER not running....reason don't know.
How was rush on GS coaches?

I can say around 30-40 passengers were their

30 to 40 in GS was Good as there was 62 passengers booked in 1 no. Sleeper coach...so overall good occupancy for this Special train.....
But the only question on that route is how many of the passengers in that route book valid tickets and travel. If all passengers in that route travel with tickets then the picture of that route would have been different now ...... more trains would have been given, stations would have been improved, passengers amenities would have improved more. I doubt on it.
