I am not supporting the extension of Kanchanjungha Exp , in my opinon a new daily train must be started b/w kolkata & Silchar .
otherwise Revised the Timetable of Kanchanjungha exp like that it can cover the entire journey within 28 hrs .
Current Kanchanjunga will take minimum 31 - 32 hrs to reach Silchar . with an avrg speed not more than 42km . GHY - SCL will take around 10 hr ( minimun 9 hr = 3:30 hr + 4:30 hr + 1 hr ) .
Railway...
more... can Reintroduce SURMA Mail which was ran between Calcutta & Silchar before Independece . Which dep from SDAH around 10 am & return train reached sealdah around 18:55 hr .
