Bokaro didn't got any new originating trains in last 10 years. Even after promise by BJP MP Subhash Sarkar in January 2024 to restore Asansol-Bokaro MEMU which was cancelled post covid, that train is still not restored till date. TT line is ready but no passenger trains till date.

IR should have implemented with removing stoppages of Manwar Sangam from Gaur and Tinich and then giving them in lieu to Maskanwa. That would have ensured constant speeds.

As for Babhnan, the Krishak express used to stop at the station before Covid since a very long time; so this is hardly surprising. I think the station can use another train bound for Delhi considering that Shaheed doesn't go via DLI now. I do not think there was any need for ADI-GKP stoppage. It's a long distance train and maybe they might

have given stoppage for access to Swami Narayan Chhapia Temple nearby [which technically, has a station of it's own though]. But I still personally feel that this train wasn't required to be stopped here.

Before covid it had RSA with train no. 17311/12 VSG MAS weekly express which is now running upto UBL only. SWR in RTI reply said they will extend it back to VSG after 2nd pitline at VSG is commissioned.
So making this train biweekly will require a second LHB rake. Also a pantry car should be added to this train.

It will be extended back to VSG once second pitline is commissioned and pre covid RSA will be established. Also now the rake of this train simply idles at SVM and VSG for 4 days.

Useful:So well explained, Roshan.
Left Neglected due to less patronage & Gauge Conversion of Londa - Hubballi. However line was reviewed & converted to BG for serving Paper Mills. There was actually a Dandeli station right into Main Town during Meter Gauge. That was abandoned & curtailed it till Ambewadi station which is recently renamed to Dandeli. Also this station was used to stable paper mill freight rake.

During Suresh Angadi Tenure as MoSR, this station was reviewed & 2 pairs of Train were also introduced one each from Hubballi & Dharwad. The joy was

short lived thanks to Covid period, trains were stopped & never reviewed till now.

BTW platforms were low level then but now have been raised, Line Electrified & also station renamed to Dandeli. , But no train services yet. Hope before Election code of conduct, Politicians should push for introduction of some trains.
