TT should be made attractive.
YPR dep at 2315 and reaching Bidar at 1350 literally wastes one full day. Not useful for Kalaburagi passengers also.
Another interesting point: This weekly express is the slowest train in YPR GTL sector. Super crawler Nanded express is always ahead of this train till Wadi.
If this train is made to leave YPR...
more... by 2100 and reaches KLBG by 0830 and BIDR by 1030, will be better.
While returning, 16578 takes 1 hour 50 minutes to cover YNK to YPR (16 kms). If train is supposed to reach YPR at 0400, what is the hurry to leave BIDR at 1440? It can leave by 1530 or so and still arrive at 0400 at YPR.
