Last friday i was travelling in PNBE - RNC JanSatabdi Express... I can say that its a very punctual and fastest train for ranchi and vice versa. Its a popular train for daily commuters. I think One more Jan Satabdi train to be inroduced from Patliputra to Ranchi via Danapur, Ara, Sasaram, Dehri on Son, daltonganj, Barwadih, Tori, Lohardaga, Ranchi.
It can be introduced when Tori - Lohardaga rail line which is going to started soon. Also till hat time one bypass line to be made in sasaram towards gaya and in Dehri while coming throgh gaya to go towards daltonganj. If at both places bypass line is made and Electrification is completed between Ara & Sasaram section. It will be...
more... fully electrifed route towards ranchi which shorter route.
