11. सभी ट्रेन को LHB कोच के साथ चलाया जाए
12.अंबिकापुर निजामुद्दीन एक्सप्रेस ट्रेन में सिर्फ 4 जनरल कोच जोड़ने से कुछ नहीं होगा इस ट्रेन में 7 स्लीपर कोच जोड़ना चाहिए तथा 4 जनरल कोच तो जुड़ ही रहा है इसलिए रेलवे प्रशासन और भारत सरकार को इस पर ध्यान देना चाहिए और इस ट्रेन को हफ्ते में काम से कम 3 दिन दौड़ना चाहिए हफ्ते में एक दिन चलाने से कुछ नहीं होता है और इस ट्रेन को कोतमा रेलवे स्टेशन पर स्टॉपेज देना चाहिए यह काम जल्दी से जल्दी हो जाना चाहिए

मुझे आशा है कि मेरी बात भारत सरकार तक जरूर पहुंचेगी
धन्यवाद 🙏🫂😊❤️

Agree Agree
In my opinion railways should make future train sets with this coach composition 6 general class coaches including luggage loading capacity , 6 sleeper coaches , 8 ac class coaches ( which can include third ac or second ac or first ac or can be a mixture of these coaches ) and ( either 1 ac coach or 2 ac coaches can be removed to add pantry car coach and extra luggage coach ) so 6+6+8 total 20 and 2 electric locos ( 1 at front side of whole trainset and 1 at back side of the whole trainset ) so 20 +2 total 22 coaches , so that instead of giving lhb rakes to some trains which runs on a longer path railways should directly convert those mail or express or superfast express trains into these trains sets and cost of making lhb coaches will also be reduced or...

saved due to directly conversion of mail or express train into train sets and rake reversal time of many trains will be reduced cost of doing rake reversal of a train will also be reduced ( due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) and speed of all trains can be increased (due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) . Please give your opinion on this but please don't give any argument related to politics so that i can save my post from getting archived.

Or either railways can apply this coach composition in in some upcoming amrit bharat express trains so that we can get see that whether this coach composition for train sets will become a successful idea or will become waste idea.
