-It should be SWR train as NCR never gets / gets least new rakes allotments.
- Being a AC express , will it find enough pax from both ends (esp. pax from ALD/JBP side ) who can afford AC fare enough though it will be weekly ? or it has better chances of being a hit like a normal SF with 2-3 AC coaches?
