Yes I agree with you friend.
I travelled by this Duronto last week and i found this to be a slowest duronto or in other words we can say this train is ruining the name of duronto express.
(1) This train is scheduled to take 2 hours to reach BSR from PNVL which is very surprising. My train departed from PNVL at 11pm and arrive near Diva Jn at 11:30pm and it was halted there for about 20 minutes. Between Kopar and Bhiwandi road, speed was ok and after Bhiwandi, it started crawling

and stopped at Kaman Road for about 15 to 20 minutes. In this way it reached BSR at 00:15 hours taking 2 hours from PNVL.
(2) Train departed from BSR at 00:30hrs and run at good speed upto Valsad. After Valsad, at Amlsad, 22903 BHUJ AC S F EXP overtook this train. I was surprised to see that some AC express is overtaking Duronto express.
(3) At 04:15am, it skipped Surat after halting for about 10 minutes at outer signal of Surat. It would have better if it halted at Surat stn instead of at outer signal.
(4) It reached BRC at 06:00 am, 40 minutes behind its schedule. Departed from BRC at 06:20am.
(5) Between BRC and RTM, speed was ok like other superfast train and it reached RTM at 09:40am. At RTM, it overtook Avadh express (which is not a big deal). I have taken a video also which i will soon post on youtube.
(6) Between RTM and KOTA, speed was again ok like other superfast train. There was no water in washroom in this train since morning as no one filled the water at BRC. I tweeted the same to indiarailmin. It worked and water was filled at KOTA. This means that indiarailmin tweeter handle really work. You just need to provide your complain with your PNR number.
(7) Between KOTA and MTJ, speed was awesome and this train was running like a duronto express. It skipped Sawai Madhopur, Bayana, Bharatpur at really good speed and reach MTJ at 16:30hrs before time.
(8) It left MTJ at 16:50hrs and reached NZM at 19:15hrs (before time) halting at Okhla, Faridabad, Tughlakabad. It can reach NZM easily at 18:00hrs or 18:30hrs but again I dont understand the logic of railway authority. I believe they dont want this train to overtake Golden Temple mail.
Thanks.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
