On Monday Merrut Lucknow at 2200 before charting the status shows 301AVBL against 401 booking quota means only 100 seats filled.

With this occupancy figures this will become another white elephant in future. There is no way the demand will pickup to fill 200-300 more seats on daily basis and full occupancy on weekends.

Re# 6173878-58              
A fast VB connecting Jaipur with tourists and business centres combine will surely be successful.
Places like Ujjain , ABU Road for Ambaji and Om Shanti will offer much needed boost … where different types of tourists can take benefit .
The real reason for the failure of UDZ is the same … it neither caters to the direction of business trips and nor the tourist trips ..

Myths. I reckon JP has most business trips from delhi only. That's why there's a reason that shatabdi double decker already running over there before vb. I don't see such category train on other routes from JP.

Pilgrimage trips are a subset of tourist trips .
CDG .. is the main change point for Himachali tourist ..
AADR VB also serves tourists to Char Devi’s and Mcloadganj !
ASR is about pilgrimage , heritage and defence tourism .

Agree:truly said.
I think Kanpur will get it's Meerut Vande Bharat connection with Saharanpur -Prayagraj Vande Bharat because if it's taking them around 7 hours to connect Meerut and Lucknow, there is absolutely no way we can imagine Saharanpur-Prayagraj Vande Bharat from Lucknow.

Although I can't comment on it's future occupancy yet as passengers can surprise railfans best example Prayagraj-Gorakhpur Vande Bharat, still I think running this train is waste of resources as of now.

Also nowadays I'm totally against the introduction of any new trains in CNB-LKO stretch, man! that stretch is absolutely jam packed, there are trains crawling back to back , goods and passenger trains sitting in the loops and until and unless they atleast triple track it and speed upgrade it no new train should be introduced in that stretch, apart from 2 MEMUs. It's basically the second most or third most important section and yet in pathetic state.
