Railways should make rsa or rake sharing arrangements between 14707/08 Lalgarh (Bikaner) Dadar Western Ranakpur express and 14717/18 Bikaner Haridwar gita ganga express and should also give 2 lhb rakes to 14717/18 to make it daily between Bikaner and Haridwar and after doing rake sharing arrangements or rsa of both trains railways should do primary maintenance of 5 lhb rakes (3 lhb rakes of 14707/08 and 2 lhb rakes of 14717/18) at Lalgarh jn and rsa pattern of both trains should be like this 14717-14718-14708-14707 then primary maintenance at Lalgarh jn.

In my opinion railways should do rake sharing arrangements or rsa between 12467/68 Jaipur Jaisalmer Leelan express and 14717/18 Bikaner Haridwar express and should also give 1 more icf rake to Bikaner Haridwar express to make it daily between Bikaner and Haridwar and after doing rsa between both trains railways should do primary maintenance of these trains at Lalgarh jn and rake sharing pattern should be like this -

14717-14718-14704-12467-12468-14703 then primary maintenance at Lalgarh jn of total 3 rakes of 12467/68 and 14703/04 + and 2 rakes of

14717/18 = total 5 icf rakes.
