Vasco Patna already runs with 23 coaches. So what's the problem ?
There is only one pitline at Vasco, SWR could have constructed one more with 24 coach capacity as present one can't handle 24 coaches. I cited SWR Ghat restrictions obstructing CC of trains passing through Ghats not Patna express as it is already 23 coacher.
But SWR has no genuine affection for VSG they have started only one train on their own initiative from VSG and that is VSG VLKN express weekly rest others were introduced in earlier SCR regime or...
more... forced on them.
They have zero to very very minimal interest in providing better services to Goans they only want to loot us by freights and use that for Karnataka that too only selected places.
Its still a mystery that 59 BOXN wagon load is allowed in Braganza Ghats but 24 coach passenger is not. If tracks are weak why not replace them, its been more than one year since SWR implemented 20 coach restrictions earlier it was 22, Amaravati express which was earlier running worse now running like hell since two UR coaches removed.
I hope that locals succeed in stopping coal business since it will teach SWR a good lesson. They have not even given a 10 percent of return benefit to Goa especially Vasco for all its freight earnings.
