Ideal Coach Composition in my opinion:-
UR-5, SL-8, 3A-5, 2A-2 , 1AC-1, EOG- 1
In case of low occupancy in 2A or 1A same may be replaced with 3A or...
more... SL.
Given 5 UR coaches in 2+3 combination a lot of short distance passengers will leave SL compartment resulting in less crowd in SL as well in 3A.
Having almost all trains with 5 UR coaches will help in clearing the extra rush.
Also Special Fare trains must have minimum 10 Sleeper coaches and proper running schedule as they are for clearing the extra rush during festival/vacation season.
Also Railways should provide Fully AC trains on all major routes having AC fare as normal SF trains.These trains must have all the stoppages as per standard train running on that section.They may be given a new name.
Priority should be fixed for all Trains
1.VB
2.Rajdhani/Shatabdi
3.Duronto/Garib Rath
4.Sampark Kranti
5.SF
6. Mail/Express
7.Passenger/Memu
Trains with Avg speed less than 45 Kmph should be considered as Passengers.
please wait...Translate to EnglishYo, here's my take on the ideal coach composition:
UR (Unreserved) - 5 coaches for the general crowd
SL (Sleeper) - 8 coaches for peeps who wanna sleep on the journey
3A (Three Tier AC) - 5 coaches for those who like a little AC comfort
2A (Two Tier AC) - 2 coaches, a bit fancier than 3A
1AC (First Class AC) - 1 coach, for the ballers out there
EOG (End on Generator) - 1 coach for powering the train
If there ain't many people in 2A or 1AC, we can swap 'em out with 3A or SL coaches.
With 5 UR coaches in a 2+3 combo, it'll make room for short-distance passengers to move from the SL compartment, meaning less crowd in SL and 3A.
Having most trains with 5 UR coaches will help handle the extra rush.
For special fare trains, we should have at least 10 Sleeper coaches and a proper schedule to handle the festival/vacation season crowd.
And on major routes, we need fully AC trains with AC fares, just like the normal SF (Superfast) trains. These trains should stop at all the regular stations and be given a fancy new name.
We gotta prioritize the trains too:
1. VB (whatever that means)
2. Rajdhani/Shatabdi
3. Duronto/Garib Rath
4. Sampark Kranti
5. Superfast trains
6. Mail/Express
7. Passenger/Memu
That's the deal, folks!
