Let Tatanagar division introduce Biweekly from Tata to Benguluru via Raipur Ballashah and SC. Vskp has enough of demand for tatanagar for dedicated train. The present Tata Yesvantpur weekly should also be diverted via Raipur SC.
Totally agreed. And should be categorized as SF instead of Mail/Exp. Because on this route most of the trains run as express and gets heavily delayed. Example:08840 running by 8+ hrs late.
How is this possible? This train is dedicated for HCNR, KDJR, BSPX, DPS and CBSA region. It was especially introduced for these areas in 2014 as special train and then for the benefit of the people of these areas, it was made permanent. Later another weekly TATA - VSKP Special Express was also introduced in this route which ran for few years. Also proposal was made in 2022 to make this train bi-weekly. At that time it was always running with 50% occupancy. Now when it is running with 100% occupancy, then suddenly how come talks about its route changing is arising?
Main discussion is not about route change, its about extension till hyderabad or a direct tata kollam train because of rsa, since railway is not able to manage its delay, always rescheduled by 3 hours.

Earlier the train used to leave Vskp at 1930 and arrive at 1030( approx timings) and return in afternoon. After lockdown a slot is made at 1530 Vskp for all weeklies towards BBS. So this train is arriving at morning at Tatanagar. SER instead of providing dep in evening made it to leave in morning. Associations have put proposal to make it triweekly and restore to afternoon or evening as Tatanagar Allepey is now delinked and proposal is also put up for triweekly.
Though its return time table is in day time. Practically it always gets rescheduled by more than three hours and then reaches Visakhapatnam about four to five hours late i.e. in morning around 4 am which is the same time as earlier time table. So practically its return is always overnight.
Yesterday rescheduled by 1.30 hrs and reached 6.40 hrs late @05.25 AM instead of 10.45 PM😝😝🤪 started from TATA 4 hrs late and on route delay 2 hrs.
This is happening on its every run. Even railways knows that it can't run this train according to the superfast time table. Superfast tag is only to extract extra money from passengers by the name of superfast surcharge.
Overnite train from Tata to VSKP and vice versa is very much needed. Loss of Tata-Allp slip has not ended up well for Tata passengers. They lost the only daily connectivity to Vizag. Tata-ERS runs at an odd time and doesn't touch Vizag which is of no benefit at all.
Now not remained suitable for KDJR, BSBX, DPS and CBSA people to return from TATA in second half. This was the only train between 10:00 am and 3:00 pm from TATA to go towards CBSA/DPS that too a weekly train. Now even that has been scrapped off in favour of long route passengers. A daily train towards BBN/GUA/KDJR leaving TATA between 12:00 noon and 2:00 pm is badly needed. If someone couldn't board train no. - 12021, HWH - BBN Jan Shatabdi Express, they have now to wait another 7 hours 15 minutes on Sunday and 5 hours on other weekdays to catch the next train from TATA.

I suppose that the reason was that on Mondays, they would have to block 2 PFs. Swarna Rekha Exp already blocks the PF for nearly 4-5 hrs and this also used to block for 6 hrs. They needed additional PF and free lines to handle TATA GODA Exp (introduced after the timings change of TATA VSKP). This is what I suppose, I may be completely wrong as well

Already Tata-VSKP passengers were let down once Tata-Allp daily service was stopped. At least Tata-Allp had conveninent timings both ways. Tata-ERS doesnt go to VSKP which is an issue. Also odd time of dep from Tata.
Tata-VSKP Exp again is a day train reaching around midnight which is again inconvenient.

One more option is to go to KGP and catch any VSKP bound train coming from Kolkata side. Most trains from Kolkata bound to south go to VSKP
Yes correct. I missed that. Passengers would obviously prefer direct option any time rather than break journey and getting down and then boarding. Overall passengers from Jamshedpur & outskirts, Sini, CKP have been at a loss with a lack of daily train to VSKP.

SER seems to be kidding or making the passengers fool with the new time table of 20816 VSKP - TATA Express. Speeds of 90 Kmph, 74 Kmph, 59 Kmph have been kept between some stations in the section from Jakhapura to Dangoaposi, whereas trains can travel only at speed of 30 Kmph in this section due to speed constraint. That is why the train always used to get more than 3 hours late in reaching Dangoaposi. See what time has been allotted to this train and what time it actually takes especially in this section -
1. SKND - HCNR - allotted - 53 mins, it actually takes 1 Hr, 30 mins,
