Railways and permanently cancel 22463/64 Bikaner Delhi Sarai Rohilla Rajasthan Sampark Kranti express and railways should extend 12463/64 Jodhpur Delhi Sarai Rohilla Rajasthan Sampark Kranti express upto Barmer and should make it daily between Barmer and Delhi Sarai Rohilla by giving 1 more lhb rake to this train and should do rsa or rake sharing arrangements of this train with 20487/88 Barmer Old Delhi express and 20489/90 Barmer Mathura and primary maintenance of 4 rakes of these trains at Barmer (2 rakes of Barmer Mathura Express and Barmer Old Delhi Express + 2 rakes of Barmer Delhi Sarai Rohilla Rajasthan Sampark Kranti express)

Agree Agree
In my opinion railways should make future train sets with this coach composition 6 general class coaches including luggage loading capacity , 6 sleeper coaches , 8 ac class coaches ( which can include third ac or second ac or first ac or can be a mixture of these coaches ) and ( either 1 ac coach or 2 ac coaches can be removed to add pantry car coach and extra luggage coach ) so 6+6+8 total 20 and 2 electric locos ( 1 at front side of whole trainset and 1 at back side of the whole trainset ) so 20 +2 total 22 coaches , so that instead of giving lhb rakes to some trains which runs on a longer path railways should directly convert those mail or express or superfast express trains into these trains sets and cost of making lhb coaches will also be reduced or...

saved due to directly conversion of mail or express train into train sets and rake reversal time of many trains will be reduced wnd cost of doing rake reversal of a train will also be reduced ( due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) and speed of all trains can be increased (due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) . Please give your opinion on this but please don't give any argument related to politics so that my post don't get archived.

Or either railways can apply this coach composition in in some upcoming amrit bharat express trains so that we can see that whether this coach composition for train sets will become a successful idea or will become a flop idea.
