How to keep your favourite train as the fastest train?? Few days ago 12302 covered NDLS-DDU 788 kms distance in 8 hrs 15 mins @ 96 kph. 22436 VB covers NDLS-BSB 759 kms distance in 8 hrs @ 95 kph. Then 12302 was stopped in DDU for 30 mins!!! Departing at 01.35 am, 12302 crossed DHN at 06.20 am & crossed BWN at 08.34 am. Can you imagine 12302 average speed was just 70 kph when it was covering the final 94.5 kms of its journey!!! I am shocked. The details: - NDLS 16.50~97.9; CNB 21.20/25~97.2; PRYJ 23.25/27~93.7; DDU 01.05/35 ~96.9; GAYA 03.42/45~79.9; DHN 06.15/20~63.6; ASN 07.15/17~82.2; BWN 08.34/p~70; HWH 09.55||
12302 reached at CNB 5 mins before, at PRYJ 8

min before & at DDU 15 mins before the estimated time.

Re# 6176146-4              
made 20 again as 4 pillars faced more erosion problem. Once New bridge comes up beside it, work going on. Then PRYJ-DDU will be 90 mins journey.
New Tons bridge is also being made. Also 759 kms in 7 hrs 45 mins is 97.9 kph. But 788 kms in 8 hrs is 98.5 kph. Post post completion of New Naini rail bridge & New Tons rail bridge is made 12302 will trounce 22435 & 22416 badly. Rajdhani trains will get VBS trainset like Coaches 1st. As per ER

Re# 5383447-19              
I think a dining car would be good, and they should make it a vistadome dining car maybe. Also, I think 1st class should have personal toilets/showers and LCD TVs. Maybe they can introduce a 1st AC Premium with these kind of coupes. Even some trains in Pakistan have this. Can be introduced in rajdhanis and some other premium trains.

Already 1AC is more expensive than some of the airline connections between some cities.

Adding all that you mentioned in 1AC would increase the 1AC cost and would be more unaffordable to normal passengers and only users would be politicians and that too for free.
