Purvanchal isn't necessarily the fastest train. On days it takes the loop via Mau, it easily loses two hours in the journey.
TATA has already a better alternative in place in the form of the SHM-GKP weekly Piyush, in my opinion if the slacks are ironed out, the train can even be a Superfast.
For 5 days, its bearable. 4 days via Siwan, and 1 day via Narkatiaganj. Rest 2 days, via Mau, it is about 1h 20m slow so yeah, some time goes for these 2 days. On Friday, there's an alternative as well. ASN GKP which could be taken if the passenger wants to stay at station for 4 hrs, by taking TATA DNR to ASN and then ASN GKP
Yes, but it takes a circuitous route. Moreover, timings aren't much suited as autos demand way more than the reasonable fare at that time. A person then needs to be present at the station more than 1:30 hrs before the departure for a reasonable pricing of auto. Had the route been via Asansol Patna Patliputra or via Koderma Tilaiya Rajgir Patna, the time would have been more less.
I once took this train. It had a scheduled arrival at Chhapra nearly three at night. The CPR-MTJ express starts two hrs later than this and has an arrival time before this at GKP [ though it arrived few minutes late that day after Purvanchal].
I have travelled in GD-ASN, with which ASN-GKP has an RSA with. That train was quite clean despite starting and ending at well, in the middle of nowhere.

ady_rajat^~ 10979 blog postsIs there RSA between 18181/82 TATA - THE Express and 28181/82 TATA - KIR Express? Both are having different coach composition.
AFAIK, both aren't having RSA.

They are in RSA. Though the CC is different, they add/detach the coaches in Yard..
so instead of just flipping the train boards, they just flip the coaches entirely?? thats crazy :o
Pdpk depot also does that. Check 22851/52. And it's rsa partners
Coach attach-detach. I think this is the reason of late shunting maybe
