This train is always empty. May be it should be extended to Visakhapatnam/Vskp...because HWH-VSKP is tough to get reservation...coromandel...chennai mail...etc...everytime WL...It must be tried on experimentation. surely it will get better response. because people travel by Dhauli exp upto BBS then by Konark Exp when they dont get reservation for VSKP. this train will help a lot. and after it can be converted to LHB so tha travel time can be reduced. It is better option to try over running an empty ICR shatabdi rake everyday.

This Puri HWH Shatabdi has 1 EC & 11 CC ICF Coaches. So, sometimes vacant seats & lesser time WL in this train don't mean that it is unpopular. If it has only 6 CC instead of 11...
