The Mangaluru Central-Madgaon Vande Bharat Express, launched on December 30th, has seen low occupancy during its first month of operation. With an average occupancy of 37% on the Mangaluru-Madgaon route and 43% on the return journey, the train carried a total of 9,549 passengers in 23 round trips. This contrasts with...

the Mumbai CSMT-Madgaon Vande Bharat Express, which boasted 93% occupancy on the onward journey and 99% on the return leg. Passenger associations argue that the Mangaluru-Madgaon Vande Bharat Express's low occupancy is due to its lack of connection to either a state capital or a major commercial center. They suggest extending the service to Mumbai CSMT by merging it with the Mumbai CSMT-Madgaon Vande Bharat Express and increasing the number of coaches to 16. Supporters point out that the extension would provide a day-time train between Mangaluru and Mumbai, fulfilling a long-standing demand of the coastal population. They also highlight the potential for the train to attract passengers accustomed to long bus journeys by offering a more comfortable and efficient alternative. Some propose a six-month trial period to assess the viability of extending the service to Mangaluru.

contrast karta hai, jiske onward journey mein 93% aur return journey mein 99% occupancy thi. Passenger associations ka kehna hai ki Mangaluru-Madgaon Vande Bharat Express ki kam occupancy ka reason hai state capital ya koi major commercial center se connection ka nahin hona. Woh suggest karte hain ki Mumbai CSMT tak service ko extend kiya jaaye aur Mumbai CSMT-Madgaon Vande Bharat Express se merge kar diya jaaye. Sath hi coaches ki number ko 8 se 16 tak badhaya jaaye. Supporters ka kehna hai ki yeh extension Mangaluru aur Mumbai ke beech ek day-time train provide karega, jo ki coastal population ki bahut saal se demand hai. Woh yeh bhi highlight karte hain ki train uss potential ko attract kar sakti hai jo ki lambi bus journeys mein aadat ho gaye hain, aur ek comfortable and efficient alternative offer kar sakti hai. Kuchh logon ka suggestion hai ki chhe mahine ke trial period ke liye service ko Mangaluru tak extend kiya jaaye, taaki uske viability ko check kiya ja sake.

Re# 5956816-1              
Panchaganga should not be disturbed. Instead, SMVT MRDW (via MYS MAQ) should be speeded up with useful TT. If needed, few more coaches can be added.
Another option could be to have a triweekly night train instead of daytime useless YPR KAWR. Make Gomateshwara (extend to MAQ) as a daily day time train and make YPR KAWR as a night train.
Another suggestion: Let Gomateshwara return as ONT via Mysore. Put it differently, Gomateshwra can start at 0800 at SBC and reach MAQ by 1800 and...

return as MAQ SBC via Mysore. SBC MAQ via MYS can reach MAQ by 0830 and return as Gomateshwara.
