I don't know why Railways don't want to run a train like this with full 22 coach LHB rake. They could have easily increased SL coaches from 2 to 6 without reducing AC coaches simply by removing the 2 parcel vans and increasing CC from 20 to 22 coaches.
22 LHB coach pitline at Vasco is in construction since 2019 but SWR are in no hurry to commission it. Too bad situation.

VSG present pitline can handle max 20 LHB coaches only. 22 coach LHB pitline has been constructed almost 90% work done but after that works have stopped. As of now that pitline is used to stable spare coaches only.
VSG platforms can easily accommodate 22 coach LHB rakes. Ideal CC for Goa express would have been
SLR GS S5 to S1 PC M4 to M1 B4 to B1 A2 A1 H1 GS GS EOG.

They could have run a weekly Amrit Bharat train between Vasco and New Delhi for those SL and GS passengers instead of reducing AC coaches. Also I don't understand why no one has objections with those two parcel vans in this train with limited CC. 4 GS coaches plus one SLR are too much. By now Railways should have got rid of unreserved class in all M/E trains. GS coaches should have been reserved as 2S it would have largely helped to reduce UR passengers boarding SL and AC coaches.

I think 3E coaches should have been removed and replaced with 3AC as it's a long distance train. 3E coaches of this train could have been to overnight trains of SWR like VSG YPR, etc.
By pricing 3E fares around 25 to 30% less than 3AC they should have added them in short distance overnight and GR trains.

Amaravati express I don't think HCP are regular. It carries 4 slip coaches between GTL to VSG that's why it's not LHB converted yet.
I don't think it's least preferred train from entirety of Goa to Delhi. Maybe tourists will prefer Goa SK or Rajdhani but this is the only dedicated daily train between Goa and Delhi secondly Vasco, Savordem and Kulem people prefer this train first as no other train to Delhi goes beyond MAO.
Infact the automatic coach washing and second pitline at MAO is just waste of funds. It should have been VSG having 2 fully 22 coach LHB length pitlines with automatic coach washing facility.

SER is always ready to give LHB rakes to Amaravati express its only SWR and SCR who are the hindrance. As of now Amaravati is the longest running ICF train of SER.

Will SWR dare to run trains like Karnataka express, Sanghamitra express with CC of 18 or 20 coaches ??
Then why are VSG CDO trains like Goa express, Vasco Patna SF run with such limited CC. These tough questions should be asked to SWR officials.

It's not like that they first prefer Goa express. The afternoon passengers train is almost as good as cancelled. SWR cancels it every now and then.
Later VSG BZA frequency got increased to tri weekly and then 4 days when it got extended to HWH.
Railways should have cancelled the KCG slip when it got extended to HWH itself. The extension was poorly planned. It was a stupid decision to carry Goa Hyderabad slip coaches in a train which was the only rail connectivity from East India to Goa considering the number of migrants and tourists travelling in it.
Second in zbtt when they were cancelling link trains they should have cancelled this slip service too.

The train was also cancelled during various yard remodeling works at VSG twice.

Bhai Ameer log train mein travel nahi karte. Aur agar ameeron se itni hi nafrat hai toh unke tax ke paiso se jo bhi suvidhayein milti hai voh lena band kar do. Iss train ke AC classes mein bahut sare middle class aur upper middle class log travel karte the. Iske AC coaches full chal rahe the itne AC coaches Kam karne ki jarurat nahi thi.
In total 5 SL and 3 GS plus coaches were more than enough for this train. But keeping only one 3rd AC coach is a very bad decision.

Stop peddling these nonsense conspiracy theories and doing petty politics even in such circumstances.

Infact we didn't even need a dedicated category for VB trainsets. Existing Shatabdis should have been upgraded to VB and if demand was there a new Shatabdi could have been started with VB trainset.
Here the need of the hour is installation of kavach across IR and conversion of all existing ICF trains to LHB and not a new category of premium train.

Even in single line highly saturated routes like KR's Mumbai Madgaon where already a Jan Shatabdi and Tejas exist they gave a VB.
But proposal for daily conversion of overcrowded train like Vasco Patna SF put down by all zones including KR citing slot sharing issues. Here they could not adjust slot but for VB they are ready to delay n number of non premium trains.

It was only because of previous RMs like Lalu IR is in the condition it is now. Only for political gains kept on introducing new trains without forecasting future demand and neglecting increasing the railway tracks.
Well how many trains did he give LHB rakes ?
How many DFCs projects he start ?
How many lines did he double or triple...

He was RM till 2009 then why didn't he start them ?
Why didn't he neither any previous UPA RM ministers start mass production of LHB coaches ?
Too busy in doing one scam or the other must be. Defending corrupt criminals like Lalu Yadav who totally destroyed Bihar is stupid.

I never said current government should not increase fares but statements like Lalu Yadav was a good RM sound hilarious that's what I was referring to.
You can check my previous post yesterday or day before time where I have objectively pointed out the positives and negatives as I feel of current NDA government's in Indian Railways.
