17040 on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday VSG...

Thats good but 18 hrs is too fast between SC and VSG considering SWRs running avg
The runtime of KCG VSG slip is just 18 hours 40 minutes and that includes slack for shunting at GTL from 17603 to 18047.
The days of run should be Tuesday Thrusday and Sat to line with weekend in Goa being tourist destination.

Usually Inaugural Spl will be in only 1 direct. Instead of sending empty rake to SC from VSG they can operate a 1 way spl
The running time can be decreased by 90mins making 18hrs journey. SC to GTL is ok after that needs speed upgrade. The dep can be delayed to 1405 and arrival at Vasco to 815. Even from Vasco the timings should be 1400 with SC arrival 800. As per present schedule Hubli 2205/15 Londa 2400 Vasco 415.
18 hours should have been the bare minimum travel time to cover the distance it's too slow now. That would have brought up the average speed to 46kph which would have been acceptable for a M/E train.
