The train will operate only once a week, but additional trips may be added depending on demand. The train's operation is due to the lack of a washing line at Moradabad, prompting the railway to choose Lalkuan as the starting point.

This is all eyewash, WR is not able to maintain punctuality during peak hours. New services are getting added during off peak hours. So actually no respite for passengers as such

These 2 additional VR DRD services might give some respite to Dahanu Rd - Virar section commuters as they got new services after many years but yes WR needs to complete Borivali Goregaon Harbour line extension, Borivali Virar 5th & 6th lines and Virar Dahanu Rd. quadrupling to decongest the suburban section.
Getting new slot for locals and m/exp in peak hours is difficult as slots in 0500 to 1200 are also a peak arrival/departure time of m/exp. They need to focus on segregation of BDTS bound m/expresses by prioritising Virar Borivali BDTS 5th & 6th lines which can help to increase frequency of Virar locals.

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
