I think CR should actively consider a few minor changes to this train as under:-

1. The terminal should be shifted to CSTM.

2. Twin locos
...
more...
should haul this train upto IGP as under to bring down the loco change at Igatpuri to5 mins:
a. WCAM - WAP 7 (with panto down in idle mode) - Rake will be an ideal CC
b. After reaching IGP, 5 mins are taken for detaching bankers while at the same time WCAM is detached. At this point of time, P7 should shift its gear to Active mode from Idling one by raising Pantos....
c. Thus banker n WCAM detachment & air pressure and brake checking and P7 activation will take place in mere 5 minutes saving 15 minutes for OTP...

3. For 22110, Only WCAM will be attached and WAP 7 shut down cutting down time to 10 minutes sufficient for it to cover its stretch upto CSTM.

4. 22109 will depart CSTM @ 14.15 hrs, 11041 will now leave CSTM at 14:20 hrs.

CSTM is already over crowded.That's why newly inaugurated trains are terminating at LTT. At the same time GR,Madras Exp,Sinhagad,Mahanagari,Patna exp occupies CSTM. Moreover,i fear if CSTM has any more space left for maintaining the said train

Re# 924714-41              
if its possible then it can be done.
But i guess,CR will not shift its terminal since AC locos will reach directly to LTT in a couple of months(provided CRS approves it) whereas it will take at least 8-10 months before electrification reaches CSTM

    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...
