It will be a good step. As it is in the Rail budget the minister clearly said that if such a unhealthy trend continues, then all express trains would become passenger trains. Below is a portion of the speech which was mentioned in his budget speech regarding train stoppages.
While I appreciate the wish of everyone wanting a stoppage close to their place of work or residence, there is a cost to the system for each stoppage. Also too many stoppages result in slowing down of trains and increase the travel time particularly for long distance passengers. If this trend continues,
most...
more... of our express trains will become passenger trains.
2. I would like to inform the House that I have allowed continuation of these experimental stoppages for a further period of 3 months, that is up to 30th of September 2014. These stoppages will be reviewed solely on the basis of operational feasibility and commercial justification. Demand for new stoppages hereafter will also be considered on the same criteria. We will try to provide alternate train connectivity to meet genuine demands of the public.
