Initially they can try 8 coach VB in this route, if demand comes then WCR can ask for 16 coach rake. And covering UJN is a must on this route otherwise it will going to face severe occupancy issue. And It will be better if Morning departure is from INDB instead of JBP, PM can be done at JBP just like how Solapur-CSMT VB is currently operating. Morning departure from Jbp will lead to direct conflict with Janshatabdi which will impact the occupancy between JBP and RKMP and already Chartered are plying between Bhopal and Indore so it will have a competition from them as well.
Morning departure from INDB atleast saves competition from JS and INDB was demanding another morning...
more... train to Bhopal from long time so this VB can play that role, office people,Govt employees and businessmen can use this for their travel to Bhopal.
please wait...Translate to EnglishFirst they can try an 8 coach train in this route, if more people start using it then they can ask for a 16 coach train. And they have to stop in UJN on this route or else there will be too many people and no seats. It's better if the train leaves in the morning from INDB instead of JBP. They can leave in the evening from JBP like the Solapur-CSMT train. Leaving from JBP in the morning would make it hard for people since the Janshatabdi is there too. Plus, there are already other trains from Bhopal to Indore so there's already a lot of competition. Leaving from INDB in the morning is better since there is no competition and people want another morning train to Bhopal. So, people that go to work or the government and businessmen can use it to go to Bhopal.
