Surprised that SWR floated this proposal last year to make this weekly to daily.
It says agreed but CR and WCR have slot sharing issues and KR have slot issue in monsoon.
New slot should be given to this train and frequency should be increased to daily.

The best route for 12741/42 is on the lines of VSG - JSME if slots are not available on KR, CR & WCR.

SWR will not easily allow new trains via Braganza Ghat section. Same reason why VSG MAS express is not restored yet.

SWR should move forward with this proposal by commissioning 2nd pitline at VSG ASAP as it's almost impossible to get a CNF ticket in this train across AC and Non AC classes.
If not daily atleast thrice a week.

CR always comes up with path constraints excuse. Nothing can be done for that.
A free slot would be easy to find through WCR.
Btw nothing happened regarding those UBL PNBE and YPR ALD proposals? I really liked them.

UBL PNBE and YPR ALD I don't have much idea but even if those two are introduced they won't be of much help to the passengers travelling by this train.
A lot of migrants from UP and Bihar work and live across the tiny state of Goa even in small villages you will find migrants living in rented rooms.
Besides now with Ram Mandir built in Ayodhya this train will see a significant rise in demand too coz it provides the nearest rail connectivity to Ayodhya for pilgrims from Goa and Konkan

region.
Some adjustments should be made to the slot both ways and it's frequency be increased to atleast 3 days a week.

Re# 5946759-20              
They were ICF coaches given to KR by SWR for KRCL trains. In ICF days KR coaches had KR SWR markings coz SWR used to supply them coaches. After LHB they got their own.
VSG don't need to send coaches to MAO for repairs as VSG has its own coach care centre. For POH coaches are sent to UBL.

Re# 5946759-22              
Nope bro even after Goa express was LHBfied there were lot of LHB coaches left with VSG CDO. Also this train had got 1AC too it was given to Goa express i spotted the marking below the door of Goa express at VSG once.
UBL NZM SF some SL coaches will be reduced and given to UBL BSB express which is getting LHB next month.
Vasco Patna SF was allotted LHB coaches.
