I am talking about adding only Dangoaposi as a halt and thats because Dangoaposi is an important station in West Singhbhum district. No train has ever run though this route which has not been provided halt at Dangoaposi. Till date two trains namely Visakhapatnam - Tatanagar special and Azamgarh - Puri Express have run through this route which had been provided halt at Dangoaposi but not provided halt at Chaibasa. This train has been given halt at Banspani and Harichandanpur which are smaller stations than Dangoaposi. Don't forget that SER had sent proposal for halt at Dangoaposi but it was removed by Railway Ministry of India and they also reversed the time table. Also Dangoaposi provides link for passengers from Bara Jamda, Noamundi, Pada Pahar Maluka, Jagannathpur and Kendposi. Talking about patronage 80% is too high for this route. Trains here run with less than 50% occupancy and that is considered...
more... as success here. I had told earlier also that this train will get 20 - 30% patronage. If halt is provided at Dangoaposi, 5 - 10 passengers will definitely alight at Dangoaposi from this train and 5 - 10 passengers will board this train from Dangoaposi. This is an estimation done from the reservation being done in Howrah - Barbil Janshatabdi Express, Puri - Anand Vihar Express and Visakhapatnam - Tatanagar Express.
