The 18047/48 SHM VSG Amaravati express is a nostalgic train as it was running then between BZA VSG on daily basis prior to gauge conversion. The frequency was increased from biweekly to quadruply infact it should be converted to daily. It should be speeded up between the newly doubled GTL TNGT section and also converted into SF by reducing unnecessary stops. The existing departure timings from VSG must be changed to 9 a.m.

Previously it used to depart VSG at 7.50 am arriving HWH at 22.25 but it was in 2006 but due to single line territory it always used to get delayed but now from Tinaighat to GTL entire stretch is doubled and few patches in GTL GNT section doubled too. So SF conversion should definitely be taken up and not only this but all trains on GTL LD route run awfully slow this section needs a definite speed upgrade.
Infact trains on SBC UBL section run much faster than GTL UBL when SBC UBL is not even a full double line.

thing this Amaravati express needs is upgrade to LHB rakes by cancellation of the KCG VSG slip don't know why this joke of a slip is still being continued.
SWR increased VSG YPR frequency daily and cancelled VSG SBC slip so don't know why they rejected SCR proposal to run SC VSG biweekly ??
