it easier for passengers to find seats in general coaches. The proposal includes seven new Vande Bharat trains and two Amrit Bharat trains for the Gorakhpur-Delhi route, along with 17 new express trains. This plan involves developing 200 sleeper Vande Bharat trains with luxurious amenities at a cost of 26,000 crores. The railways are also planning to produce 3,200 additional Vande Bharat coaches within two years. Coaches are being manufactured at the Integral Coach Factory (ICF) in Chennai, Rail Coach Factory (RCF) in Kapurthala, and Modern Coach Factory in Rae Bareli.

Agree Agree
In my opinion railways should make future train sets with this coach composition 6 general class coaches including luggage loading capacity , 6 sleeper coaches , 8 ac class coaches ( which can include third ac or second ac or first ac or can be a mixture of these coaches ) and ( either 1 ac coach or 2 ac coaches can be removed to add pantry car coach and extra luggage coach ) so 6+6+8 total 20 and 2 electric locos ( 1 at front side of whole trainset and 1 at back side of the whole trainset ) so 20 +2 total 22 coaches , so that instead of giving lhb rakes to some trains which runs on a longer path railways should directly convert those mail or express or superfast express trains into these trains sets and cost of making lhb coaches will also be reduced or...

saved due to directly conversion of mail or express train into train sets and rake reversal time of many trains will be reduced cost of doing rake reversal of a train will also be reduced ( due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) and speed of all trains can be increased (due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) . Please give your opinion on this but please don't give any argument related to politics so that i can save my post from getting archived.

Or either railways can apply this coach composition in in some upcoming amrit bharat express trains so that we can get see that whether this coach composition for train sets will become a successful idea or will become waste idea.
