Sorry for late post.

From past 4 months I have been doing weekly up down between Bhopal and Jabalpur due to office work. I have done numerous journeys in almost every suitable dedicated train between BPL and JBP, be it ADTL Intercity, Janshatabdi but mainly in 22191 INDB-JBP Overnight and 12192 JBP-NZM Shridham.

7th December 2023, I got the oppurtunity to travel the only Premium train of this section, newly introduced and extended 20174 REWA-RKMP Vande Bharat Express. With this I have covered all 3 VB of Madhya Pradesh.
That week almost all other trains between Jabalpur and Bhopal were either cancelled or diverted due to 3rd line work in Barkhera-Budni.

It was a bit rainy morning, when I reached station, the train was slightly late but likely to cover up due to slack and it did. There were so many passengers waiting for VB to arrive. VB arrived on time and it was almost 50% filled from previous station. decent number of passengers got down at JBP and then it got completely packed, I got a Window seat but bad-luck only 20% window was there along my seat.

Nevertheless I started recording video for my YT channel and noted down key points. Immidietly the water bottle was served and off we go.

Coming to catering, the breakfast was Ok, we got Upma, Thepla, Aloo Sabji, Curd, Tea and Muffin. Upma was tasteless but warm but Aloo Sabji and Thepla were lipsmacking, it was loaded from Satna. Lunch was served immediately after departing from Narmadapuram, its taste was also Okaish but as good as Breakfast.

Coming to its run, this train has ample amount of slack, we have reached Itarsi outer 10 minutes before and made entry on platform exactly on time. After that due to 3rd line work in ghat we made 3-4 unscheduled halt near Midghat but still it reached RKMP on time. This VB only picked 130 kmph after Barkhera.

In my opinion this train can get speedup of 30 minutes. There is no need of 10 minutes halt at ET it can be reduced to 5 when there is no Loco Change as of now Crew from JBP goes till RKMP and LPs has to go from 1 cab to other thats why its taking time but that can be changed as REWA-JBP and JBP-ET by JBP Crew and ET-RKMP by ET/BPL Crew, also JBP halt can be reduced to 5 minutes as well.

Overall it was a great journey, could've been much better if speed is more and if I would've got proper window seat. Cleaniness and Security in this train is excellent. REWA CDO is maintaining it good.

Please enjoy the journey I described above in detail on my channel.
Suggestions are welcomed.

I have travelled in REWA-ITR too between JBP-ITR a couple of times in last 2 weeks, and I found it maintained pretty good as well. Cleaniness was not upto mark but I can consider that because it has already travelled between REWA-JBP but still it was OK.
In Rewanchal and ANVT SF, there is no maintenance done from REWA end other than just cleaning floors, maybe that's why you found them dirty.

Doesn't make sense to deploy 3rd set of crew for saving 5 mins of journey time for short distance. Already one set of LP run for only 3 hrs then handover to another set for 5hrs. It is waste of manpower.

You'll find my response on YouTube.
The entire saga is about control by Crew.
Firozpur Division is handling entire run of SVDK NDLS Vande Bharat (morning from SVDK).
Delhi division gets to handle Amritsar Vande Bharat

NR has retained control of Ayodhya Vande Bharat.
Ajmer and Jaipur Divisions were already fighting about Delhi Cantt Vande Bharat.
There's no chance in hell about Jabalpur Division giving even slightest of control to Bhopal Division, their Union would eat them up.

Re# 5939555-9              
WCR is already doing this with all trains having reversal at ET, with fresh loco they provide fresh LP set at ET.
This was exception as previously it was going till JBP only that's why end to end crew was working.

Its not only about saving 5 minutes but collectively reducing time.

@5939555-8  @guest
I agree.
I talked to 1 of the Senior LP at RKMP, he was taking the road learning of RKMP-ET section as he never operated train here. I am talking about the time when this VB was plying till JBP only.
He also told me the same ki BPL Crew is already running RKMP-NZM VB that's why JBP div got hold on this one.

Honestly speaking even that wouldn't have turned the tables as VB would still be competing with Janshatabdi. For a VB between Indore and JBP, morning departure from INDB would only have been beneficial. Altogether, JBP BPL/ INDB sector was never worth a VB.

While it will be the best alternative, I don't think so anything is happening to this VB. Rewa got this VB all thanks to its MLA and the current Deputy CM of MP.

Even I was not in favour of introducing VB in JBP-BPL section but it has been introduced now, what to do.

There are only 2 options left either change the TT or departure from both ends or simply cancel it.

know for VB there is not much end to end demand that's why I have came with that TT so that it can get collectively good occupancy to JBP MYR STA and REWA.

And regarding competition with ICE, it can be extended to Mandla Fort by giving LR at MML, wese bhi late aati h to maximum passengers MML pe hi deboard kr lete h, ADTL tak to mushkil se 20-30 passengers bachte h to better h usko Mandla tak extend krde taaki NIR MFR walo ko Bhopal ka direct connection mil jaye usse JBP ki dependency ICE pe thodi Kam hogi and they can use VB better, cz I have seen ki passengers mil sakte hai VB ko lekin kyoki economical options avlbl h isiliye koi le nhi rha otherwise jab mne travel Kiya h VB me to full hi thi.

Okay now you've been sounding funny.
1. Do you have an idea about the PF capacity at MFR?
2. You think ICE will be able to reach MFR and then return the same day?
I reiterate that if VB departs from BPL in the morning patronage will dip further.
Cancellation

is the ONLY option favouring all.

But what I could see from the Atlas map is that from Bhopal to Barkhera is 130kmph.... so maybe it could be correct.... check with others once...👍👍
