It is sad indeed to see this train running empty since 15 months.
There are tonnes of trains from HWH to DHN like Coalfield and Shatabdi which were not running that much packed. This train was absolutely unnecessary.
Better to provide this train to some other zone. ERS-SBC, MAS-SBC are some options.
Otherwise change of route such as extension to BKSC-GAYA
...
more...
or BKSC-RNC or diversion via KGP-TATA-ROU

Sinhgad was DD before, so I dont think its a problem, unless new dd rake is taller than previous one.

This train should be immediately extended upto Bokaro or Ranchi otherwise i think it will continue to suffer from the lack of patronage.

already highlighted this bro..DD should always replace one of the existing trains. Otherwise it wont be possible to create demand for additional 1000 AC seats.ideally, this should have replaced Shatabdi or Coalfield.

sirji...the line has been activated with AC current till the KYN station and has been tested upto TNA....so around 34 kms from TNA to CSTM and a 50 km stretch on the harbour line is all that remains....
PS.i dont have any idea regarding the heights of AC or DC catenaries
