Yes SL VB only but it's badly needed for CSMT to Chennai Bengaluru Hyderabad

---

Yes
CSMT SBC (Triweekly SL VB) with run time not exceeding 16 hours
CSMT MAS (Triweekly SL VB) with run time not exceeding 18 hours

Should be run to start with.

VB sleeper between CSMT and MAS with run time of 14 hours, CSMT and SBC with run time of 12 hours and CSMT and SC with run time of 9 hours is needed. Daily up /down trains will clear all the passenger requirements. Udyan express needs to get Faster and converted as SF express and intermediate stops to be curtailed a run time of 18 hours is practically feasible. The number of stops can be reduced to around 20 and make the express train into SuperFast and this will clearly cater to the long distance travellers. SWR can introduce new trains from SBC to Kalaburagi or Raichur to cater to passengers travelling to Kalyana Karnataka region. There is no more excuses for not speeding up this long distance trains including LTT - Coimbatore trains into real Super Fast category with average speeds of 65 kmph.

Agreed, but the point here mentioned in this article is that many people are preferring Udyan and 11013/4 for intermediate stations like Raichur, Kalaburagi, Wadi, etc. so reducing their 1 or 2 stoppages might draw a strong opposition from the daily travelling public.
Best introducing a new SF or SL VB with minimum stoppage and less slack for these 3 cities will definitely prove useful and now that UBL MRJ section is on verge of completion of electrification we have an alternative to Solapur route although slower in PUNE MRJ section but still a triweekly or daily for SBC/CBE via MRJ can be tried with aggressive TT.

Bangalore Mumbai needs 2 new SF LHB daily trains apart from daily VB SL. Chennai all three trains capacity to be increased to 22 coaches and a New VB SL, Hyderabad both trains capacity to 22 and a daily VB SL and increase in frequency of Duronto to Triweekly with change in timings to 2000 dep and 800 arrival on both sides.

Sampoorna kranti ❤️ in up direction patna to new delhi cover almost 1000km in 12 hr. And in down direction new delhi to patna. It takes 13 hours up to patna not 14 hours
Btw I believe there sould be atleast one train to mega cities. To give premium connection. Like sk ❤️ and thanks to ncr who made this possible

They can experiment ACSF/Duronto(not recommended due to flexi fare) via UBL MRJ PUNE
To minimize SCR messing up
Straight till CR @ PUNE

---

To do that, this train needs to be scrapped and a fresh new train to be introduced, with limited stops at CSMT, Dadar, Kalyan, Karjat, Lonavala, Pune, Daund, Solapur, Gulbarga, Wadi, Raichur, Guntakal, Yelahanka, Cantt and City.
