Once again KRCL issued PR for LHB conversion of VSG CDO train before SWR.
But with this now all M/E trains of VSG CDO are LHBfied.

They need to restart the MAS-VSG service again, which was stopped during COVID-19. Badly, missing this service. Used to take direct train from MAS. Now, we need to visit YPR from MAS to take Goa train. I think Chennai is the only capital city which don't have the direct train to Goa.

Re# 6090972-14              
I filed RTI in which they replied it will be started once 2nd pitline at Vasco is commissioned.
Regarding capital cities North East, Jammu are yet to be connected with Goa but do agree this MAS VSG exp was a very popular train especially for people to see Dudhsagar waterfalls they should have restarted in this monsoon with a Vistadome coach.

This double dekker is successful train running from past 12 years. 2ACC are replaced with 2GS and total 5GS are running now with 600 new capacity. It would not be scrapped or replaced with intercity coaches. In future you may see introduction of Vande Metro with 16 coaches with fare in between GS and ACC.

This DD is doing well. Now with the addition of 5 2S coaches, it may be on par with Brindavan...

Not now. But Maybe after 4-5 yrs. If they introduce any new DD rakes, then we can expect the replacement. And this is one of the successful trains b/w MAS & SBC. And CC price is just 580 only which is less than the price of AC VOLVO Buses, Shatabdis, VBs and 3AC of Overnight trains b/w MAS-SBC.

CSM-MJO is now Double Electric line. Amravati Express becomes the 1st Train to run on the Newly laid 2nd Track.
With this now out of 58kms from VSG-QLM 37kms has been doubled from CSM-KM.
