Shub_rail_102 150 blog postsWent on to check 07310 MFP-VSG Summer Special at Karmali. Surprised to see the loco link a Pune Based WDG-4 #12461 long-hood EMD, no Electric Traction provided. No TB too on this one, it had a Clear Green Signal at Karmali on the main line and on the loop line 22114 KCVL-LTT waiting for the crossing but someone from the passengers did ACP and train came to stand still for 10 minutes on the main line. Overall, very unacceptable service for such long distance Special Train LHB rakes with no Pax Loco and no priority from DDU to KYN added almost 1 hour delay at every station in between. Now waiting for rake reversal at MAO from 44 minutes.

Ac coaches were at the end before General Coaches. Couldn't find much rush in any coach including general it was almost empty I think most of the them got down at Thivim and very few at Karmali when the chain was pulled. Maybe there isn't much rush from returning journey (07310) but it will be fully occupied for sure, however if you compare 12741 vs 07309 in both up and down journey for the occupancy part WL is more in 12741.
