One is usually standing between pf1 and 2 while the other in the siding beside pf5

adding SL class in this train wont reduce 3AC bookings at all. In fact this is most in demand train of BPL. The main problem is due to PUNE because out of 6 platforms only platform 1,2,3 can handle 22LHB/24ICF length rakes rest PF 4,5,6 have shorter length. With only these 3 PFs pune has to manage passing, originating terminating and reversals of full length trains. Otherwise why will RKMP will take so much time and effort to add and remove SL coaches from the same rake.

Pune needs a new

terminal which should have been made years ago. By looking at the satellite view even Hadapsar cannot solve this due to lack of space. A new terminal at a completely new location is highly needed for trains towards daund and manmad.

Re# 6074205-2              
For dadar central IR should shift all vande bharat from CST to dadar so that these small lenght platform and pitlines can be used otherwise there is no use of running small length LHB or ICF rakes from here.

Stations like dadar central, dehradun and kalka have less platform length and pitline length which has led to reduction in no. of trains due to increase in no. of coaches.
...

The worst hit stations in this case are kalka and dehradun and I guarantee that Howrah Kalka mail will be terminated at chandigarh only once its gets LHB.
