Is major junction(s) / terminal station(s) are able to accommodate arrival/departure of train(s), post speed up ?
Because, yesterday's Train No. 02783 VSKP-AC had started from GNT at 02:11 & reached MLY at 06:10 (03:59 hours for 276 KM's, average 69 KMPH). But, this train was detained at MLY for 06:40 (for 30 minutes), and finally reached SC at 07:00 (10 minutes early, than scheduled arrival time).

Any specific reason for detention at MLY, except terminal constraint at SC ?
What is the use of aggressive run between GNT-MLY, when it took 50 minutes (after reaching MLY) to reach it's destination (which is just 6 KM's far) ?
It is a live example to clear our myths, when we speak about speeding up of trains, just by quoting Section Speed, Train Name, Stoppages etc.
