It was only for CLR yard inspection. I visited QLM CLR ghat section in April 2023 only poles were being laid.
Second i travelled to VSG on 15/06/23 to capture first LHB video or Goa express from SVM in pass train during that I saw the progress of electrification of MJO VSG and only poles were being laid and at VSG yard only some poles were laid in no way it's possible that both sections are electrified so soon it will take another 9 to 12 months for these two sections to be electrified and I guess it may even take more than that coz progess is too slow as of now.

I too travelled from VSG to MAO onboard 12779 on June 23rd and while poles were laid at most places, there was no sign of wiring being done so I was surprised to see that post on FB. But there have been times when electrification has been done rapidly depending on external factors, like Marwar-Jodhpur section in March-April '22 and SBC-UBL line earlier this year. So I assumed a month was enough to finish off CLR-QLM and MJO-VSG if given enough priority.

As of late May, I saw most of the ghat

I travelled in 12779 on August 3 from MAO to PUNE. OHE poles were erected but there was no sign of any other OHE equipment or catenary between Kulem & Castle Rock.

Bookings suspended in this train w.e.f. VSG from 15/11/2023 and w.e.f. PNBE from 18/11/2023.
Most probably LHB conversion after spotting its allotted LHB coaches by a RF from UBL division /blog/post/5745583

Bookings suspended means CC is bound to change most probably also one thing good happened to VSG JSME post LHB conversion is it got a pantry car I hope even Vasco Patna gets it coz this covers 2200+ kms and halts are also few just see on the way to Patna MMR halt is around 11am and next halt at BSL around 1.30pm next same day ET departure around 6.30pm next halt at JBP around 10pm.
Frequency should be increased to 3 times a week of this train considering the rush it has. SWR should definitely consider it now 2nd pitline is also ready at VSG but still they haven't introduced a new train or increased frequency of existing one at

The existing route of 12741/42 VSG - PNBE Express via KR should be changed to run via MAO - LD - UBL - GTL - WADI - WL - CAF - G - BSP - ROU - RNC - CRP - GMO - GAYA for faster connectivity between VSG and PNBE and an alternate train for passengers of 17321/22 VSG - JSME Express till CRP.

But that is a slow and problematic route we have seen how terribly late 17321/22 runs. Also this is the shortest route between Goa to Patna.
Please give me your WhatsApp number in private message.

This will eliminate the engine reversal at MAO provided the Falwado link was materialised which was opposed by the minority community.

17321/22 ke sath kar liya toh iske sath bhi karenge. Itna demand hone ke baad bhi SWR isko 24 coach rake nahi de rahe hai aur na hi pantry car.

SWR ka bhi LHB conversion bahut slow hai kyunki coaches itne allot nahi ho rahe hai. Same reason rahega SCR ka bhi hoga allotment data check Karo SCR ka from coach production factories.

Check the railway coach production websites coach outturn figures. There are three coach product factories in India producing LHB coaches.
Rail Coach Factory Kapurthala (RCF)
Modern Coach Factory Raibareli (MCF)
Intergral Coach Factory Chennai. (ICF)

search on Google, like for eg.. "ICF coach outturn" for getting ICF coach factory production figures and so on.
