2nd pitline at VSG is commissioned.
Now 17311/12 can be extended back to Vasco which was short terminated at UBL citing pitline constraints.
Along with this the long pending demand to start MRJ VSG triweekly should also be considered.
Vasco Patna SF whose rake idles from Monday morning till Wednesday evening can also be utilised to run a weekly ONT train from VSG...

Nowadays if one passes by hubli yard there are lot of lCF coaches parked for POH. Hubballi already has 3 new trains in its div this year viz. bgm-sc spl and soon to start dedicated ubl-sbc exp ONT and ICE. With the completion of doubling by this month end i am expecting more trains to start from ubl.

Except a small stretch between hubballi south and saunshi(20km), sbc-bgm is doubled. CRS for ubls-saunshi is planned on march 16. Along with this, haveri yard remodelling is being done. Bengaluru- devargudda is fully electrified in sbc-ubl region. But the rest of the area between devargudda and ubl is under going rapid electrification work. If CRS is called for electrification this month it will not be a big surprise. In Ubl-bgm section, londa-gunji and desur-belagavi is pending for electrification. But even if the electrification is complete i am not sure whether the elocos will run as TSS work is still pending in ubl-dvg section.

Election code of conduct is supposed to start from March 27th. I don’t know if VB would be introduced any time soon.

Ubl- thanjavur has been announced from 20/03/23 using idle rake ubl-mas exp.
With Belagavi becoming first non Zonal HQ station of SWR in Karnataka getting full fledged maintenance facilities, can we expect more intra state trains and some useful trains to neighbouring states from BGM?
Something like
1. BGM KCG via MRJ SUR KLBG
2. BGM BIDR via MRJ KWV Latur
3....

South bound trains should originate from bgm. There’s no point in running a train towards north as it would not serve even 5% of SWR but rather be a CR territory serving train. Bgm-maq, bgm-tvc, bgm-mas, bgm- cape are good options.

Mangalore in Karnataka is unfortunately under SR how many trains does SR run towards interior Karnataka?? Zero . Belagavi needs better intrastate rail connectivity. North bound trains are running from sbc and ubl. There is no need for a separate train towards north. CR’s Pune division doesn’t have a single train towards bgm, ubl, dvg or hpt route.

Seperate train should also benefit people in SWR right. Better to start north bound trains from ubl and south bound from bgm. I assume ur thinking with respect to southern Maharashtra. Let pune division extend jhelum exp or azad hind exp to miraj /kolhapur.

I don’t have any problem my friend. Why does south Maharashtra depend on SWR for north bound trains ? why dont they ask CR for trains? How many trains does CR run into ubl, gdg, hpt or dvg area except chalukya n gdg mumbai? When SWR has developed infrastructure in its territory it should first serve the home zone not CR or any other zone.

SWR always has been behind in providing in good intrastate services and that is the reason why most of the kannadigas get irked when the neighbors ask for train services with our cities as stations for PM best example would be mangalore, bidar or kalaburagi. I don’t have much idea about udyan n ltt-cbe because i stay in dharwad and i travel between dwr-dvg-sbc mostly. Talking abt Chalukya, yes it was extended to pdy/ten but the delay in receiving and dispatching is based on SR ability to accommodate train in their network. So the blame is not totally on SWR.
Since mys-dwd has been extended to bgm. Bgm is connected to has. Rest of the routes dont have direct connection. That’s totally SWR s fault.

I totally understand the frustration. Ubl-dr-ubl exp is painfully slow and undercoached(15 coaches). This train has waiting list throughout the year but thanks to shorter platform length at dadar it has been a 15 coacher. The train takes 15 hrs and runs as shadow train behind chalukya exp. All the trains to mumbai area are CR based and this pattern you can observe in trains from mas to mumbai area and even they are crawlers.

Dwr-mys PM has been shifted to bgm thanks to the new dedicated ubl-sbc train. I think in coming days dwr- mys may start from bgm.

All are crawlers. None of them are superfast. My point was why start a train from belagavi towards CR with out serving any majority of SWR. Instead start it from ubl.
Absolutely, can be extended to bay too and the majority of ubl div will get a connection to mumbai.

We have lot of similar trains like sbc rajdhani, karnataka exp. i know how it works boss.

Karnataka’s intrastate rail network is poor. Most of our major cities are not connected to each other by rail. I want development of intrastate rail network. If you can’t understand that then thats not my problem.
Thanks to Suresh Angadi sir we got lot of trains in his short tenure. Famous among them would be bgm sf, bjp-majn exp.

I think some VSG CDO train is getting LHB rake.
Spotted LHB rake parked at SVM railway station. Couldn't count or spot all the coaches as was on bike and some works going on the road so had to be extra careful. But there were Deen Dayalu, EOG multiple coaches and 3AC economy single coach at my end could not spot the remaining coaches.
It could be that these are Goa express coaches or indeed some other train getting LHBfied. I hope it's for 12741/42.

Seems like Vsg-pnbe. What about the status of second pit line at vsg?

Believe me LHB will not do anything to improve speed of the train. It’s just upgradation of rake.
