Ahem, 32 kph average for a train that doesn't have too much stops b/w JHS-NZM [average for that section]. Also, ironic that the train and tracks are capable of 130 kph at multiple points in that section, and still they make this drag of a TT. I have seen slow locals that stop at 30 stations b/w KGP and HWH having a faster average than this.
ehm *38kmph avg actually.. but your point still stands. almost 21hrs for 800kms is too much. 13-14 hrs would have been understandable but 20?! even some Mail/Express trains are faster than this
I was specifically seeing the average for JHS-NZM section. That doesn't have much speed restrictions yet this train is even slower on that section. I guess, "special" treatment for higher fare paying pax :p
also if you look at the coach composition it feels like a Amrit Bharat Express :P
Yes, I saw it. It does kind of represent that coach structure. Maybe, if this train is regularized in the future, they can just slap the tag of 'Amrit Bharat' onto it.
