Yes indeed... more than that it's simple, neat and crisp enough to know whether it's Vaigai or Pallavan... no extra designs in those TBs and for those locomotives, strategic way to promote their products... I like those kind of designs (both for TBs and locos).... moreover, the ads they add on the coaches, those also look good...

But to be frankly speaking, I feel nothing can beat the original livery of the LHB coaches (Red for Rajdhani or normal type trains and light blue for Shatabdi and normal type trains) as they

have an aesthetic look to the passengers and those who do RFanning.... all the more, nothing can beat the ORIGINAL ICF coaches.... blue colours... those r next level....👍👍👍

A little out-of-context to ur reply, I really liked the TB design of the 12625/12626 Kerala Express (link shared for reference).... that's quite appealing I'd say... looks neat with those animated cities representing the source and destination of that train....👍👍

Yes true these simple and detailed TB's are always aesthetic to see and also depends on colors which are selected too. 😁

Yes, I agree with the liveries. Hope IR implements them too to distinguish.

See, 3 trains back to back towards east. How beneficial it would be if it was operated on 3 different days?

Of course it should be changed!

The Important thing is all trains are packed, it shows the real demand.

More new trains are needed towards the east.

Re# 6134218-54              
Never had a doubt on occupancy of trains bound to east or north east, and there is no doubt that more services should be operated towards east / north east, the demand being perennial. Thing is, if the existing services is fairly distributed among different days of a week, it would provide better options and be very much effective is what I feel. Also, it paves way for effective operation in PDY as well.

Re# 6134218-55              
I second that, More stabling lines and Pfs even pitlines(At least one) should be considered at PDY for better operations. Even today PDY HWH and PDY CAPE are being pulled off empty from PDY to VM for Maintenance. So it's better to have pitlines at PDY which will also pave way for more new essential trains.

I also welcome the move of Upgrading Valavanur [Halt] Station into crossing station in the section of VM-PDY. This shows railway cares about trains running in the mentioned section. So, lets hope for the best.

If space is not there in pondicherry for pitlines then atleast villiyanur must be tried out. I doubt there is more space for extension of station premises for pitlines/stable lines at PDY, given the location within the city. Agree the latter part.
