Aswin Philip Saji 19 blog postsThe only daily train from South to get LHB coaches, even grand trunk is getting now, when will it gets new coaches now these icf coaches are getting old and coaches are being not yet good
seriously sr lacks funds. only 1/4 of stock is lhb and rest are all old icf stock.
Fund allocation for the zone has nothing do in allotting LHB coaches. RB approves LHB coach allotment for trains based on proposals sent by the respective CDO/Divn/zone. The wait may be longer unless SR intervenes and prioritises LHB for this train just like what it did for Kerala express as its having 6 rakes. So, we need 6 LHB rakes and spare coaches. The general attitude of IR is to give LHB coaches for trains with lesser number of rakes and/or having RSA with some other trains to show increase in LHBfication on paper. Of course exceptions do exist due to political reasons and regional demands.
When SR LHB MAS TVC SF(DEP. ON EVENING), NILGIRI EXP), SETHU EXP AND PROVISION OF LHB 3E COACHES TO MAS NZM GARIB RATH MAKING AS TRI WEEKLY?
