Haa log direct route hi prefer krenge Ayodhya ke liye, bas AC Wale hi passengers shift huye hai
Yes, people are going to prefer direct trains inbetween these cities, that's why I was expecting this VB to be superflop again after extension upto Prayagraj but it's doing decent numbers, although extension upto Agra would have been more feasible imo.

It was not decided by me to run this train upto Prayagraj, RB and Zonal Board decided this, and also maybe there some operational constraints of not extending this train upto Agra, it's not like they share every detail with us.
Sure, we can question about what they were thinking since there's an Intercity to Lucknow departing 10 mins after VB and reaching about an hour late with less than half of the price, so this train actually getting this occupancy is itself something to cheer about instead of being overly critical....

Yeah! IG they wanted to have an experience of Vande Bharat or they just choose the first train they saw while booking the tickets 😂

Fair enough, I just checked trains between Prayagraj and Ayodhya Dham and none of them are actually on 'perfect time', so the one which is almost easy to catch on is Saryu Express, which is running full with AC CC and also there isn't UPSRTC Volvo running on this route as well, therefore I must agree people are choosing comfort over short distance running in this hot weather.
Now many may not agree but I think this VB is doing better than expected

Yeah! Honestly I'm just surprised that there isn't many good options for AC travellers between Prayagraj and Ayodhya, one train originates from Prayagraj at around 4-4:30 am and one reaches Ayodhya around 11-11:30 pm (timings are not exact, so don't quote me) so now I understand why someone might take a longer route train on this route.
Also NER refused to share IRTTC proposals, stating it's confidential

Jhusi railway station is now completely changed with 4 platforms and and new station building, it now attracts decent number of people to board train which wasn't the case before because of it was in a pathetic condition even though it comes under city boundary limits.
A lot of work has been done and still going on like water tower, one footover bridge, shades, station platform work, entry road and two gigantic lodge/stay hall kinda thing.
Now, since NER is investing so much, they should start giving halts of express and maybe some...

Yes, they have improved a lot and I'm not expecting them to be a terminal station, I'm just expecting more train halts like of Chauri Chaura Express, Lichchavi Express, Vibhuti Express, etc.
It will be only developed as terminal if Rambagh gets in NCR's hand as they always request to.

Sorry for low quality pics but the train was very well maintained from the outside with 2020 LHB coaches from NCR, wish they run this train tri-weekly if not daily. Also do enjoy the EOG sound.
