Pehle se increase to hue hi hain halts, aage bhi chances hain acche khaase kyuki kaafi unreserved coaches wali train hai. Jan Shatabdi hoti to shayad kam stops hi rehte, par uska bhi bharosa nahi agar Kashi Jan Shatabdi ka example liya jaye to.

Re# 5937031-22              
I know. I once saw it at it's departure time from LKO NR and it was packed to the brim; all it's non AC coaches didn't have an inch of space. In comparasion, the morning BSB bound ICE via PBH has shorter rake size and much less crowd. The afternoon ICE has the least crowd, I think, since it is the slowest one.
