Yes. Ratnagiri Mumbai Ratnagiri ICE is need of hour.
Tejas should be made to run in reverse, returning Goa by late evening.
VB can stay 8 coacher but should source another rake and made daily.
Another overnight express between Mumbai and Mangalore would be awesome and should halt at most stations between KKW and MAJN.

Ratnagiri Mumbai Intercity is definitely needed. CSMT will be a better terminal for an intercity type train rather than LTT
KR can introduce an intercity in the RN-Diva Pass Slot but with a faster TT covering the distance in 6.5 hrs. Train should have 3 CC coaches along with 2S and Gen coaches.

50103/04 can be converted to an overnight train leaving Mumbai

late night around 00:30 and reaching Ratnagiri around 8. In the return journey, it can start from RN at 8 in the evening to reach Mumbai around 4 in the morning.
There is a huge demand for Gen coaches on this route which is evident from huge crowding in overnight trains like 11003, 20111, 12133 etc
It can have RSA with Sindudurg Exp (SWV-DIVA). 10106 arriving Mumbai in the evening can depart as 50103 to Ratnagiri and reach in the morning. After PM at RN, it can then depart in the evening towards Mumbai and reach next day early morning. The same rake can then depart as 10105 to SWV.

Agree
Timings are good and this is best set of timings that can be given to Day intercity. The problem is with days of operation. Tourists try to reach by Friday afternoon or Saturday morning by 900 to return on SUN. This timings Saturday is wasted in journey and to return by SUN there is no time for stay except night life party for a day. Looking at the trend of bookings from Mumbai of both VB and Tejas they are getting max occupancy on Friday SAT. So this Tejas should run on Wed and Friday from Pune and return on Thursday and Sunday. They need to station the train in Madgaon for a day and cannot cite pety reasons. They should run trains premium as per traveller requirement. I have observed that both VB has good occupancy due to 8 coach and Tejas having half occupancy from Monday...

to Thursday and Goa being tourist destination premium trains are used for weekend travellers.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
