In waiting list for this entire week. I can surely say this is the most successful VB, it may show plenty available before 1 or 2 weeks but a day before it will be filled, atleast 90% will be filled. This is the option for those who has to travel urgently and definately for sure there be atleast 800 people everyday who will travel between SC to VSKP and enroute cities and vice versa. This VB is a hit.

Sorry for the late response brother... even I'm also hoping that they don't get phased out... atleast they should plan it properly so that there won't be any clashes in the timings like the Chennai Mysuru VB and Shatabdi... fingers crossed brother..🤞🤞🤞

The Shatabdi express will be replaced by VB once 75 VB target is reached for Sitting class. RB will rake a decision and cap the age of 10- 15yrs of run and replace with VB

Why hasn’t the Railway Board designated Eluru as a stop for the VB train, similar to other district headquarters? Introducing a stop at Eluru would be beneficial as it would connect district headquarters directly to the main city like visakhapatnam and hyderabad

Don't compare Visakhapatnam SC VB with BBS VB. Later was given stops as intercity to get occupancy but failed to attract travellers and is running with 50% occupancy. Dts headquarters doesn't necessary need a halt it's running with good occupancy and another stoppage will eat Vizag quota.

Not needed, EE is already well connected to both VSKP & SC by a plethora of other trains...

Why there is no stop at EE for both VSKP-SC CB trains?
Out of all districts VB covers only West Godavari dist has no halt, there is no need to go into loop line as train halts on main line at EE in both journeys, hardly it may increase journey time by 5-10 min by adding halt at EE.

Any efforts to

request stop at EE so far any members ?

I feel stop at KMT is unnecessary and taking so much time due to loop line, no of passengers boarding & deboarding also very few at this station

In Visakhapatnam Vijayawada section PF 3 is on loop line and will take 10 minutes for the stoppage. After addition of samalkot stop the running time is adjusted and is taking 8.5hrs fully. Any additional OD stops will add running time which is already stretched for day time Vskp SC end to end traveller. If you take one stop per district then more will come as they are new districts

It won't take 10mins for VB to halt at PF3 at EE... it's not a curvy one..
If that is the case WL and KMT both sides PF is on loop..

It went into WL just now. Book it tonight itself before first chart. The number of travellers deboarding at Vijayawada is higher then the number of boarding but leftover seats are not available for booking after first chart and the system is showing not available daily for both towards Secunderabad and Visakhapatnam.

Yes you can board the train with general ticket and consult TTE and pay difference amount. But these days TTEs are not issuing paper ticket and putting the fare collected in their pocket. (Corruption).

Re# 6025719-5              
I when I travelled in Jan end a WL paper ticket traveller boarded our coach and travelled. (Looks like he took paper WL ticket intentionally to board the train). Even in charts its written as TTE in the section can book issue ticket. ( it is common for all trains). In many VB chart is being prepared at source station and many seats are available in between or last sections but not shown in booking so TTE may issue ticket by taking difference amount. Don't know whether there is any written instructions that GS tickets holders cannot board in the rule book.
