It seems there is a daily train from Vasco-da-gama (VSG) to Bengaluru (SBC), but surprisingly there is no daily return train!!!! (See the attached Pictures)
Can someone please clarify me how is it possible?

I don't understand what is the issue, when RC can have the slip and is also such a popular train (more popular than SG IMHO), then surely the slip arrangement can work with both trains. PM constraints is not an issue as well as the amaravati express is with SER and has SCR slip coaches from KCG-YPR express. At least in this case all trains are of SWR itself.

If attaching to SG is an issue, then probably they can attach to Vishwamanava. Though the idle time at UBL will be more, but still a daily connection can be established. There will not be any issues as Vishwamanava still is a UBL divn train along with Goa and the slip coaches. Vishwamanava is only a 15 coacher.

Re# 3748332-19              
It's not exactly the same situation. RC and Amaravati carry the through coaches in both directions.
With the exception of a very few trains like 11047/48 (most of which are introduced solely for carrying the through coaches), IR typically does not run Up and down trains with different coach compositions (not the order of arrangement but addition of through coaches etc) or run trains with through coaches in one direction only.
As of now, the return journey will be through RC only as

it is the only one that connects to Goa express and gives an overnight journey. If they use Siddhaganga or Viswamanava, the through coaches will be in one direction only, which is something IR avoids as much as possible.
Also in case of Siddhaganga, if additional coaches are attached from UBL due to demand (these will be from MYS base), they will have to be detached at SBC to attach the through coaches. They will have to figure out other arrangements to send these coaches back to MYS/UBL.

Vishwamanava is a good match, but again, the problem here is IR's unwillingness to run trains with through coaches in one direction only. Especially now that IR is gradually discontinuing through coach services in most areas, they are less inclined to introduce new arrangements.

A Full Journey from Bangalore to Goa on board the Solapur Superfast Express upto Guntakal& the Amaravati Express thereon | Magic of twin diesels and the numerous curves en-route was mesmerizing to say the least | The cherry on the cake was the just adequately flowing Dudhsagar Waterfalls | The best journey i have undertaken so far | Check out the video link given below for the highlights of the journey

Few years back iron ore from Karnataka used to get dumped here and then moved by trucks. The sidings were always occupied by BOXN Wagons now after mining ban they are empty.
