They need the dough, clear and simple explanation.
Running a special train won't bring enough extra revenue, so why not run an already overpriced premium service as a special. They're running a VB/Tejas rake on the NDLS-PNBE route, which is double this route, then why not here.
The...
more... original service this rake is used for runs poorly patronized anyways, so NR/LKO is doing everything to generate revenue from those two rakes. Volvos are running ONT with seating configuration since ages, and are doing just fine.
So, if the journey is doable, and if people are willing to buy the tickets, what's wrong in running a VB.
