I had travelled by the 22847 LTT Express from Visakhapatnam to Mumbai. The train was filled to capacity and wait listed passengers had also boarded this train in the down stations at Bobbili, Rayagada, Titlagarh, Kantabanji… as this is the only train to India's commercial capital from this region, says Karunakar, who travelled by this train recently.
Many people with general tickets boarded the train till Raipur and Durg as it is serving as a daytime Intercity Express. Many pilgrims from Vizianagaram, Rayagada and other places, find this train convenient to visit Sri Shirdi Sai Baba temple. They alight at Manmad and go by road.

this train has such high patronage, we request the East Coast Railway to initiate the following: Increase the number of coaches from the present 19 to 24 by adding a few AC coaches as there is huge demand, convert the train into a daily (as it caters to the needs of people going to both Mumbai and Shirdi) by slightly changing its timings as this slot is filled and run as a daily two-pair Inter-city (like 12805/6 Janmabhoomi Express) from Visakhapatnam to Raipur/Bilaspur/Korba and vice-versa as it reduces the load on this train.

ECoR is neglecting South-Western Odisha and Waltair Division. From LTT - PURI/BBS there are 4 Trains
i) 12879 LTT - BBS
ii) 22865 LTT - PURI
iii) 11019 DR - BBS
iv) 12145 LTT -

BBS ..
Towards RGDA/TIG/KRPU we have only ONE WEEKLY Train
22848 LTT - VSKP
I think ECoR and CR should leave the slot of 12879 and 22865 to 22848 ..
It should ask for increase in frequency of 12145 as it would be beneficial to the entire state ..

The following lines should be given priority in the coming Budget by either allocating funds or through PPP
i)PAP - CCT/COA - KLPH - NS (Proivdes an alternative route to BZA to the already congested route Via SLO, RJY & EE)
ii)KVR - BDCR (By doing so RJY/KVR & BDCR will become big Junctions like SC, WL/KZJ, GTL, BZA, RU & VSKP and also it reduces the distance from RJY/COA/VSKP to SC,NDLS,LTT, SNSI etc)
iii)NDKD

- KHT (Asmentioned by Siva Rama Krishnan it is all weather route through backward areas)
iv) PDPL - KRMR - NZB
v) KYOP - MOB
v) NDL - YA
vi) GNPR - THV(RGDA) : Provides a direct link from NWP - PLH - GNPR - RGDA (Instead of circuitous Via (CHE, CPP, VZM, VBL, RGDA)
vii) Quadrupling and Electrification of BN - SC
viii) Third line from GPT - VSKP

Many people from Mumbai travel to MSMD, KRAR, KBJ, TIG, KSNG, MNGD, RGDA, PVP, VBL, VZM & VSKP and there is one train ie., Train # 22848 LTT-VSKP SF EXP. It can't be made daily because in the same path Train# 12811 LTT - HTE SF EXP, Train # 12879 LTT - BBS SF EXP, TRAIN # 22865 LTT - PURI EXP are there. Since BBS & PURI are having another train ie., TRAIN # 12145 so it will be better if this train was made daily and leave slots of Train # 22865 & 12879 to VSKP. It will be better if the timings of Train # 12811 is changed for the convenience of people of HTE.
