It is bypassing Visakhapatnam. Okay fine
But why technical halt at Simhachalam North. Why can't it be converted into commercial stop

Atleast DVD can be given a proper halt. I think watering is also available at DVD

DVD doesn't have watering facility PF1 main line PF2 is loop always occupied by freight to let passenger trains from Vskp pass. Realignment needs to be done at SHM north or SHM to halt bypass trains for 5mins as regular stop with crew change.

Crew change point. As Vskp main station is skipped crew change the train at SHM north. Vijaywada Visakhapatnam is a section for crew and Chennai/Renigunta to Benguluru region is a section for crew.

SR to SWR section crew operation is fine. But how come SCR to SWR via SR? It is very far for a home home zone crew isn't it??.


Finally found that crew change is happening at Arakkonam Cabin. Halted there for nearly 5 minutes...
...
more...

Instead they can use TRT as a technical halt as already running rooms are available there. (Tiruttani/SR)

Providing a stop at Visakhapatnam Junction would be advantageous over the regular halt at Vizianagaram Junction and the technical halt at Simhachalam North. This is due to Visakhapatnam's status as a divisional headquarters in the East Coast Railway and its recognition as a prominent city in India.

You will endorse the proposal for this particular stoppage?

Similarly Katpadi Junction also required (especially for crew change).

SCR operating between SWR & SR. Very big task. Inorder to prevent any future accidents, This should be handed over to SWR crew at Katpadi Junction (SR zone)
