Few updates from my recent trip in 12779 on 13.04.2023.
1. 12779 CC is exactly reversed by SWR except the 2 parcel vans.
2. Spotted 8 brand new LHB coaches consisting of 6 GS and 2 3ACE coaches most probably for Goa express at Kalem.
3. SVM to Kalem FEDL updates Total 10 kms. SVM outers ground works going on at good pace and

the bridge outside SVM ready too, ground works at good progress for around 1km, further around 2 kms no works done most probably some land issue, then for around 7kms double line fully laid till Kalem. Regarding electrification the existing line is electrified and on the new line poles are laid. If the work on the middle 2 kms start immediately now the section can be doubled in next 6 months.
4. Kalem to Kulem existing single line already electrified and doubling works have just begun from Kulem railway station.
5. Kulem to Castle Rock no doubling work, but electric poles have been or are being put up at all places except the tunnels.
6. Castle Rock to Tinaighat doubling update: from CLR for around 30% of the section no work but for remaining around 70% ground fully levelled now ballast laying to commence. Electric poles have but put up besides the area levelled for double line. At CLR I think only the mainline is under wires (not fully sure) but other tracks only poles have been put up wiring still left.
7. LD to Kudachi if fully doubled now and Kudachi to Vijaynagar doubling almost done can be commissioned in next 2 to 3 months. could not notice electrification coz of darkness but poles are definitely there entire route could not or did not see the wiring though.
8. Vijaynagar to MRJ doubling going at slower pace compared to Kudachi Vijaynagar. My trip ended at MRJ.

Only solution is now Railways reduce the WL they allow and strict action on unauthorised pax penalise them and then shift them to GS.

Those two parcel vans should be replaced with pax coaches.

I will say better to start a clone express of every popular train and leave it.

Khel khatam , But no, India needs more Vande Bharat now.

Two more coaches of 3AC should be added to this train as demand is definitely there for AC travel in this.
CC should be 20 LHB+ 2 LVPH.

I don't think there are such restrictions before reduction in AC coaches in June SWR had already added two additional GS coaches to this train in May itself and it was running with 20+2 LVPH CC already. Check these
