Dude, it's basic knowledge, man. Instead of going to BZA and wasting 30-45 minutes, I suggested taking the shortcut via BZA bypass. Also, there are 4 stops for VB, but only one for Duranto. Both VB and Duranto travel at a speed of 130 kmph. Don't just assume I lack basic knowledge, you don't have a clue, dude.

LOL 😂 Even if Duronto Express doesn't have any stops in the middle from SC to VSKP, VSKP local train runs smoothly by accelerating slowly and speeding up easily. And who said it wastes 30 to 40 minutes? 😂 It's actually faster if you go by VSKP local train as it takes only 20 minutes to get in and out of the station. If you check the train from BZA, it may be 10 minutes late at max, and it'll depart as soon as it arrives. And, if you compare VSKP local train with Duronto Express, you'll realize that VSKP is much faster. Even if Duronto Express runs at 110, it still takes more than 10 hours to cover the distance of 30 kilometers. That's the worst part 🤣, whereas VSKP takes only 8 hours and 30 minutes 🔥.

The Vijayawada bypass line bulb line is 1.6km away from the station and for every train, there is a speed restriction (PSR) of 15kmph in both lines. It takes 6 minutes to cover the 1.6km distance, another 3 minutes on the platform for arrival, making it a total of 9 minutes for one side. Plus, there is a 15-minute stoppage for LC (line clearance) and another 9 minutes to cross the bulb junction point. So, the total time for the loop is 33 minutes for a stop at Vijayawada. If the train is diverted via the bypass line, it takes 6 minutes to cover 1.5km, and there is a 10-minute stoppage at Rayanapadu for crew change. The effective time saved is 3 minutes for arrival on the platform, 3 minutes for departure from the platform, 6 minutes for going back to the bulb junction, and 5 minutes at Rayanapadu, making it a total of 17 minutes only. If Duronto (a specific type of train) is run on the main line via the bypass, they can provide a maximum of 9 hours with a speed of 130kmph. Anyway, we will see how much time they will save in the Visakhapatnam-Vijayawada section when they implement 130kmph in the timetable starting from October 2023.
