Great
Recently made trip in SGRL- BSB MEMU Intercity , and out come was truly awful and my end conclusion was to avoid this train, the major culprit was usual NCR - Prayagraj division . The division is one of its kind and their is none like prayagraj which do not bothered to run a single of its own zone in 100 km section .

I thought EMU will have better acceleration and will run on time but sadly it reached 1.5 hrs late at varanasi. I am skeptical, as

these delays will result in avoiding of train by people and ultimately cancellation.

The good outcome was NCR upgraded Churk to Lusa and that is now 100 KMPH fit , so 40 km of 100 has decent mps . There was PSR of 85 on curves.


Added few pictures taken en-route . All clicked in Singrauli to Chopan.

1- Journey ticket M/EX from SGRL TO BSB . But via DDU not via JEP.

2/3 - Stacking lines in 3 nos . I don't why ECR is not converting it in PIT lines as they have lengths of handling at-least 18-20 coaching trains, presently occupied by BCM and others

4- Sunrise through the hills.

5/6- MEMU negotiating curve post SGRL departure.

In later pics there is a lot of works going on for change of alignment and reduction of curves . Almost 10-15 % of route has been abandoned or will be later abandoned. The mps has to upgraded to initially to 90 kmph and later to 110 kmph. Most prpobably this will be auxiliary route to HWH- CSMT via CIC

3/4 Short terminated TPU SKTN/SGRL Triveni Exp at Agori Khas with offlink LGD WAG-9 AND running 3 hrs behind schedule and possibly due to this many have missed connecting CPU-GMO intercity train and now have to complete rest of journey in shaktipunj express .
