TKD WDP-4B "प्रतीक" - रंग ऐसा कि हर किसी को प्यार हो जाए - Anubhav Kashyap

Totally stuck in between Hazaribagh two zones, Bosses in Bokaro don't wanna divert their trains towards their side, Ranchi division or another division don't wanna send trains via Hazaribagh and won't create a pit line, no other way except taking a bus to Sariya/Ranchi for long distance trains.

This new train started on a new route, if it continued through Hazaribagh, people there would've gotten the first connectivity to Delhi and Puri. But the railway only thinks about giving trains on the same old route. There are already plenty of trains from Bokaro to Delhi-Puri, so they should've given a new route. It's the unfortunate outcome of a weak parliament that Hazaribagh has to face.

Bilkul bhai, yeh train naye route mein chalti thi par ab wahi boring old route par jaati hai. Majnu log naye connectivity se deprived hain. Railways ko ek naya kickass route dena chahiye tha!

So, in 3 months, we got a total of 78 runs. Let me break it down for you:
Jalna had 48 passengers, Sambajinagar had 228, Manmmad had 10 (some folks want to add Shirdi VB, but tough luck), and Nashik had 98 passengers. On average, that's 380 travelers, hitting an 80% occupancy rate. But hold up, on weekends and Mondays, we're full at 90-100%, while midweek sees a drop to 60-80%. We should be making Rs 5,40,000 each trip, but we're only pulling in Rs 3,30,000, which is a weak 61%. If we reroute to Sambajinagar, cut 30mins off the trip, and adjust the return time to 1615, we could fill those empty seats and up our revenue. Some want to extend the route to Nanded, but that's a bad move – we'll be losing money with near-empty runs. Starting from Jalna ain't gonna cut it financially.
