It is only during morning time. The problem is trains terminate here and Railways takes a LOT of time to remove those trains from the platforms. For eg, the Krishak and Pushpak often remain standing for over an hour before being removed from the platforms. The Chitrakoot Express often remains standing for five plus hours and goes back as Lucknow - Barauni Express. And in the afternoon, when stuff like Shatabdi, Intercities from Jhansi, Agra, Meerut and Gorakhpur come, the platforms fill up fast.

It is true, it is not feasible

for trains to come to LJN and undergo a loco reversal like in the old days at CERTAIN TIMES OF THE DAY. I have seen Barauni Lucknow often being stranded at Aishbagh just to wait for platform at LJN. That being said, Lucknow Jn is empty many a time, especially come post midnight. For eg, some trains can again come to LJN and undergo the proper loco reversal thing if they are coming at post midnight time since the station is a ghost town then.

It will never end. Nor the so called City Based Railfan clubs would allow or want to end it.
I'm happy at least Railways themselves made an update, and tagged it a city based "pride train", which is best to connect Prayagraj & New Delhi.
Why should city like Mathura, Agra, Gwalior, VGLB, Khajuraho, Banda, Chitrakoot to allow train to be called a "pride" which doesn't even passes through these cities?

Agree
Basically all the trains terminating at Jabalpur that don't have Primary Maintenance based there would be targets regardless of destination or demand from Jabalpur. PM waali trains SECR lega nahi because phir facilities develop karni padegi, SECR would rather construct a full fledged Deen Dayal Upadhyay Junction like Freight Yard before even thinking about going for a Pitline. ЁЯШВЁЯШВ
You never know, to get rid of headache of parking the rake for long hours Jabalpur might let it go. Waise bhi bharegi Jabalpur se hi, only headache would be incoming rush for stations like Maihar, Satna, Chitrakoot from extended portion; going to Lucknow all the way would be a relatively Jabalpur based activity.

Fir to jada options hai hi nhi extensions k. Most of non PM trains of JBP are intercities jinka layover kam hai. Long distance non PM trains shyd bas Humsafar or Chitrakoot hi hai. Jisme se mujhe to phle lgta tha ki Chitrakoot ka bhi PM JBP ko hi kr lena chaahie RSA break krwa k. LJN or JBP dono pe sufficient layover h. Bas LJN apne yard me parking de de isko.
Wese Agree PM wali trains SECR lega bhi nhi wrna sabko Itwari ya Gondia extend Krna pdega.
