Re# 4494392-3              
The Pull push technique on intercity express is a total failure. This train was diverted after MONKEY HILL to a another track- (used by goods trains) which is empty. This route after MONKEY HILL STATION l till KARJAT has plenty of zig-zag curves and so by the time the train reaches Karjat station, it was ALWAYS -20-25 minutes late. NOw when train reaches Karjat-some EMU locomotives which come from Khopali were allowed to run before Intercity as a result-Intercity Express never reached CST in time-.
NIce atleast old timings of Intercity express has been implemented. so that one can reach destinantion in time.

When the train used to reach destination in time, the engine used was WAP -7. Subsequently railways have removed WAP-7 and now Deccan Queen is pulled by some old model of engine (which is totally no comparision to high speed WAP-7).
Unless WAP-7 or WAP-4 pulls DEccan Queen, same problem of late arrival will continue.

Lol
The train can still reach destination Mumbai in evening at reduced departure time from Pune i.e 18-40 hrs from Pune to Mumbai instead of 17-55 presently. For this, the Intercity express needs to be run along the old train route from Monkey hill to Khopali ( this will avoid zig zag curves present -if train is taken on different route from Monkey Hill to Khopoli).

Still if train is diverted from Khopoli to Mumbai vai -Khopoli-Panvel section, many New Mumbai traveller s can tae advantage- Also train will be non stop
...
more...
till Panvel from Lonavla as Karjat-Panvel section is empty.

Railway please consider this suggestion.

Re# 4494392-13              
My friend,
What is mean to say is that the intercity express must adopt a route after Monkey hill to KARJAT (not khopoli-wrongly typed) along the old route of Lonavala-Monkey Hill-Thakurwadi-Jambrug-KARJAT-kalyan-Thane-Dadad-CST. The WAP 7 or WAP 4 engine can easily travel the distance of 192 kms between Pune and CSTM and reach destination in time.


Moreover
...

to reduce further time in reaching destination, the train rout eof Intercity express need to be changed as follows;

Pune-Lonavla-Monkey Hill_Thakurwadi-Karjat- PANVEL-Thane-Dadar CST.

(ie the intercity Express after reaching Karjat- mus be DIVERTED via Panvel to Thane-Dadar-CST) Karjat-to Panvel is just 26 kms and this distance can be covered in 25 minutes. A stop at PANVEL for JUST TWO (2) MINUTES can be given for alighting purposes for residents of NAVI Mumbai.
Thereafter Panvel-to Thane in another 30 minutes an d from THANE to CST in 40 minutes.

Railways must consider changing the route of Intercity express via PANVEL.

I would request railway authrities to , if possible, kindly make this route 'DOUBLE LINE' instead of single line presently. if this route is made double line, frequency of train can be increased and more tourist will visit Matheran.

Rrauilways -with some provision in rail budget-must take steps to convert this exisitng track a Double line. Since narrow guage is there and distance between matheran and Neral- small- this project can be completed within one year.
