Why railways isn't considering introduction of vb between Chennai and Secunderabad?
MAS-SC Vande Bharat via Guntur morning dep from MAS would be very good in my opinion
It will definitely get good patronage
Also...
more... this VB works as reverse VB for tpty VB in nlr ogl gnt stretch
Schedule could probably be like
MAS 06.00 Nlr 07.44 07.45 Ogl 08.49 08.50 GNT 10.30 10.35 SC 14.10
Return
SC 15.10 Gnt 18.15 18.20 ogl 19.49 19.50 nlr 20.49 20.50 MAS 23.20
707km in 8h 10m avg@86 km/hr
please wait...Translate to EnglishWhy the hell isn't the railway company considering bringing in a fancy-ass train between Chennai and Secunderabad?
A Vande Bharat train from Chennai to Secunderabad via Guntur in the morning would be freaking awesome in my opinion.
I bet it would be packed with passengers.
And this train could also serve as the opposite direction for the train from Tirupati to Vijayawada in the Nellore, Ongole, Guntur route.
The schedule could be something like this:
Chennai departs at 6.00 AM, reaches Nellore at 7.44, stays for a freaking minute, reaches Ongole at 8.49, stays for another freaking minute, reaches Guntur at 10.30, stays for a few minutes, and finally arrives at Secunderabad at 2.10 PM.
On the return trip:
Depart from Secunderabad at 3.10 PM, reach Guntur at 6.15 PM, stay for a couple of minutes, reach Ongole at 7.49 PM, stay for another couple of minutes, reach Nellore at 8.49 PM, stay for a freaking minute, and finally arrive back at Chennai at 11.20 PM.
Covering a distance of 707 km in 8 hours and 10 minutes, averaging at freaking 86 km/hr.
