I think it was via Kazipet. If I am not wrong, it had halts at Eluru, Vijayawada and Kazipet.

By shortest, if you mean in terms of rake length, then it's not unique. There have been many trains with 3 coach rakes.

A few years ago, the Indore-Bhopa Double decker was running with only 3 coaches (2 passenger coaches + EOG) before being cancelled.

The

Jalamb-Khamgaon and Ait-Konch shuttles still run today with 3 coach rakes.

In the past, short distance (100-150km) passenger services with 3 or 4 coach rakes, very quite common.

Its via Vja Kazipet. Stoppages at Eluru snd Vja not sure of KZJ or WL. Used to leave Rjy at 500 Vja 710/30 SC 1200 return around 1600 runs 6 days at week with maintainance at SC. Started with 8 coaches reduced to 2 yet didn't find takers. Cancelled and Janmabhoomi was introduced to compensate loss of train to this region. There was a demand for reverse intercity from Vskp to Vja right from Ratnachal introduction in 1994

The timings itself were so bad especially that of SC - RJY.

And actually -Shatabdi between SC-RJY, even say SC-BZA would have failed around that 1999. It is well ahead of time considering the purchasing crowd in the area.

Now, shatabdi between SC-RJY would not get an encouraging response.

But a Jan Shatabdi / agressive ICE with 5-6 CC (just like BZA LPI ICE) would do.

2 options for that.

1) They can either extend the current LPI BZA ICE till RJY/CCT with originating changed to SC for PM.
(But as LPI BZA already has a wonderful patronage I genuinely feel that it shouldnt be extended)

2) CCT SC CCT with 5:00 am dep at CCT (close to BVC slot & ahead of Coromandal) and arrvl at 13:30 at SC, and return 14:00 dep at SC and 22:30 arrv at CCT would ease rush on Janmabhumi.
