Re# 6209371-1              
This is welcome news. Specially the extension of CCG- BSR AC EME till VR which runs during peak hours. Similarly conversion of 12 coach trains to 15 will bring big respite to commuters. However the WR should focus on improving punctuality of trains during peak hours. All the services are late by minimum 10 min. by the time they reach destination. Semi fast locals to and from BVI / Goregaon are creating bottlenecks during peak hours. These should be either converted to Slow services or should be extended upto VR with no halts between BVI and ADH
