and there is a chance of diverting this weekly express train17204 kakinada port-bhavnagar terminus express via bza-wl-pdpl-nzb-mue-pau-ak-bsl-jl-ndb-st-bh-brc-an nd-nd-adi-vg-srgt-btd-dlj instead of running it in bza-gnt-ndkd-bn-sc-vkb-wadi-gr-sur-dd-pune-kyn-bsr -st-brc-adi-vg-btd
but the main drawback if they divert this train in this new route via pdpl-nzb is 3 times loco reversals should be done one at bza and second at pdpl and third at purna
from coa-pdpl it is fully double track and electrified(214+292=506kms) and from pdpl-nzb-pau-ak it is single track and diesel engine (178+140+208=526kms) and from ak-adi it is fully double track...
more... and electrified 704kms and from adi-bvc some part is double line and some is single line and diesel engine totally 298kms.
if suppose this weekly express train is diverted via this new route it will be helpful in establishing the connection of north telangana district people peddapalli,karimnagar,jagityala and nizamabad with ahmedabad,surat,vadodara textile cities.so there will be much demand for this train.
let us see what will happen
