There is a need for a superfast train service - Shatabdi train service from Mumbai to Shirdi. This Shatabdi train should depart from Lokmanya Tilak Terminus (LTT) at 6.30 a.m. and reach Sainagar Shirdi by 11.30 a.m. Likewise, the return journey from Sainagar Shirdi to LTT should be at 6.00 p.m. so as to reach LTT by 11.00 p.m. A Duronto train also would do but this will not be helpful for passengers of Nasik, Manmad etc.
It is an earnest and fervent appeal to the Railways to introduce this train immediately.

This is totally because of bus mafia. 1000s of buses operate b/n Mumbai and Shirdi. If a Shatabdi and a daily ONT is introduced, they are under the fear to lost out the income.

To be frank most of Pvt buses are operated by Politicians from the backdoor. They dont want to loose their share. Something fishy is definately there. As since from last decades Only 1 ONT train (DR-SNSI triweekly) & daily Crawler passenger (That too half portion of train) are plying between Shirdi to Mumbai.
Shatabdi between SNSI to Mumbai is excellent Idea, but i doubt it will materialise. At least CR should run Dr-SNSI-DR ONT on daily basis.
Due to this bus Maafia , no new train is started between Mumbai &

Bangalore even if there is huge demand. People have no option to travel other than Super Crawler Udyan & Ltt-COimbtore.
Also there is huge traffic Between Mumbai-Hyderabad, even Duronto biweekly are running full. SCR can easily increase the frequency, but i think bus maffia lobbies are too strong.

    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...
