Any progress of 2nd pitline and extention of 1st pitline to 22 coaches. VSG being terminal station and 2 long distance daily trains having PM and 4 days SM needs 2nd pitline. Without proper terminal facilities they cant increase frequencies of weekly trains.

No works for extension of 1st pitline that's why all PM trains restricted to 20 LHB.

2nd pitline as per SWR RTI commissioned in 2023 itself for full 22 coach LHB length but catwalk is only partially constructed on one side and no works going on that since. As of now only Vasco Azara parcel special train undergo PM on 2nd pitline and the VSG MFP holiday special running earlier this year was also undergoing PM on that one I think.

But no regular trains undergo PM or SM on it. It's usually being used as stabling line for spare coaches.

How will this train get occupancy ? Amaravati Wardha Chandrapur are not crowd pullers to get full train occupancy to SC or further to Hubli Goa. If such train is planned then the starting station should be Nagpur. Nagpur Panvel Madgaon RSA with NGP SC VSG.

It is a Fast Passenger with an average speed of 38 kmph. Why does the Railway claim that they have the capacity to run the Trains at 130 kmph? It seems that the 130 kmph is limited to only 10 to 20 trains in India.

Agree:No idea
It's been almost two months now since SC MP and MOSR announced this train on Twitter but no signs of SCR introducing it anytime soon.

Re# 6170466-14              
I'm telling you the updates which I have got that inaugural was from SC because train proposed by Secunderabad MP and not by a politician from Goa so most probably inaugural will be from Secunderabad the same way Vasco Jasidih express inspite of being SWR train inaugurated from JSME coz it was proposed by Dubey ji.
And 15th September inaugural is cancelled as per the update I have. I hope it's inaugurated before the end of this month. And SC VSG express is definitely a new train coz it will require seperate slot for two days a week present link trains did not require seperate ones as they run linked with Amaravati express and TPTY express.

Re# 6170466-17              
I know that after SC VSG express introduction they will cancel both link trains and Amaravati express LHB conversion is planned this financial year don't know about TPTY VSG express.
But treating SC VSG biweekly express as compensation train is not correct there was always a demand for dedicated Hyderabad Vasco train and those two link trains were infact compensations for not fulfilling the demand. Running those two link trains did not require additional slots as they run combined with Amaravati express and Tirupati express but now Secunderabad Vasco biweekly express will require additional slots so it should be treated as a new train and the compensation link trains would be gone for good.
