It should, I guess. Lucknow has no connection with Ranchi, so atleast for Ranchi, it should be good. Even for Puri, no daily train[ except tri weekly Neelanchal Express ], so one should be expecting decent occupancy in such a train assuming the coach composition is not full of AC coaches.[ SL coaches have a much greater demand even for smaller stations ]

Any route will work, but the thing is Ecor trying to provide few trains to KDJR.

---

Ranchi - Banaras extension to Lucknow will happen likely.

---

Muri-Chandil-CKP route is also under utilized, only one weekly ANVT-BBS, what about the remaining days in same slot? Is it booked to some extent of the same route? I am sure Muri to ROU is free all other 6days.

---

Yeah from GMO 22805/06 use to share slot with 12819/20,12825/26,12323/24

---

A good entry, considering that Lucknow only had connectivity to Odisha otherwise only three days a week via Neelanchal. I assume it'll ultimately also take the TATA-KGP route.

Eithercase, the route via GKP is a longer looped one. One going directly via AY-BSB would have been shorter.

---

I personally want it to go by GOMO-DHN-BJE

---

Ye kab se chalegi

---

That is not a good option, making it longer just to cover DHN and most likely will not be happening. GMO can be option for pax from DHN to take this train and DHN has a daily dedicated train for Bhubaneswar.
