@@SiddharthRaiyani They could have done doubling of tracks instead of electrification Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu did 40 km from Roha to Veer , but his sucessor instead spent money for electrification of single track of KR, because Malai bahut badi bath hain. Electrification me jyada malai than double track laying.

[@siddheshchavan2751]

Even if Double Tracking Is not Possible one thing can be done i.e. alternative days running. One day From Veer to Mangalore the next Day from Mangalore to Veer. This can have a greater impact to save time and cover the route very fast. This may have an Impact on train scheduling timetable for a while but that can be sorted out in near future. In emergencies the NH 66 can be preferred as it is on the verge of getting the highway completed by four laning.

[@arvind50]

One feedback to Konkan Railways. Given that RO-RO are so successful, for the benefit of the drivers and assistants who spend so much time in their trucks, can IR/ KR just add one pantry car right in the front, right next to the loco and caboose? That way drivers and assistants can buy fresh food, will have toilet facilities and also maybe have a small entertainment section in it so they can sit and watch a movie or something. This will greatly benefit the drivers and assistants who spend days on end in their trucks and also make it extremely popular with the truckers.

[@dhanamjayas]

Excellent idea!✔️👍

[@NewstatePlayer100]

Toilet is necessity

[@Aakashputtur]

Sounds impossible,

[@geetheshbhat]

Konkan railway has many crossings as it's a single line. So this facility might not be needed as it can be availed in stations

[@hdkloh6857]

I agree. There is no will to run such trains. One Rajya Sabha MP Mr. Sahastrabuddhe also proposed one similar kind of train should run daily between JNPT-Vadodara/ Ahemdabad, which will reduce cost of transportation, time & majorly traffic of between Panvel-Thane (esp Ghodbandar Rd) + Mumbai Ahemdabad Highway. But sadly both the zones Central + Western didn't coordinated properly resulting this Ro-Ro service was shut down immediately.

[@rahulvarhade9971]

Kokan Railway Is Most Important Maharashtra 💯✌🏻🚩

[@saiyingpun7827]

Krcl is also earning thru engineering, they are experts in building tunnels and bridges.

[@erwinrommel9137]

Will the Goa Mumbai highway reduce Trucks on Konkan Railway If it's then, it shouldn't be built

[@BINNY2205]

Maybe not. Because of the terrain maybe too much traffic jam if roads are not 6 lanes at least which I don't think is quite possible there and not to forget Konkan coast and ghats attract a great amount of tourists because of the peace and scenic beauty. So maybe we'll see what happens

[@nilstoned7593]

No. Even if highway becomes fully operational in maybe in another 10 years, RO is cost saving than roadways

[@oadka]

I hope that DFCCIL (dedicated freight corridor) by virtue of being a PSU will deploy such Ro-Ro services on a larger scale and with more competitive pricing due to the usage of electric/new diesel locomotives.

#AskPT Why government don't make new railway line/expressway in the coastal area of konkan? So that it won't have to tackle hilly terrain and cost and time consumption would be much lower as well.

[@nilstoned7593]

There’s already coastal highway work going on since last 10 years but is not getting closure due to locals & politicians of kokan. It’s Mumbai-Goa highway

[@SiddharthRaiyani]

Politicians of goa has also cancelled the doubling of railway. Maybe they don’t want more tourists to visit easily. Reason which they gives is environmental but trains are more beneficial economically as well as environmentally.

[@vijaykumardhanawade9655]

Bro one such project Hubli ankola was opposed by environment activist they don't want their son or daughter work in railway and come home at evening to eat with them by their hard earned railway money😂

[@banadigan7511]

@@SiddharthRaiyani Konkan Railway has already land for double track in their possesion along entire route. Only lacking was presence of sincere political leaders like George Fernandes, Madhu Dandavate, Ramakrishna Hegde and Suresh Prabhu. Suresh Prabhu did doubling of track from Roha to Veer, but his succesor PG was interested only in *Malai* and took up electrification of single track Konkan railway knowing very well that track was saturated for more train traffic. Rupees 1287 crores was spent on electrification purpose.Ofcourse there would some obstacles in doubling of tunnels but still major chunk of route could be doubled

#AskPT why airoplane companies are failing in india. while increasing middle class in country and their increasing purchasing power. what are reasons that most of aeroplane companies are operating with major losses.

[@BINNY2205]

Indigo gives flexibility like non other. Indigo connects Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities even. Most of the airlines are limited to national capital and state capitals and not to other cities but Indigo is. That's why rest companies are failing to do so. Indigo has almost last I checked around 300 planes, they connect small cities too with big cities and give connecting flights that too without change of planes/or if change then Indigo planes only. So they have grabbed the domestic market like no other.

[@tomriddle4110]

our planes cannot compete with emirates, luftansa etc

[@BINNY2205]

@@tomriddle4110 Vistara and Air India can very well do that. But not to forget we've a large population and most of the people still use trains, whereas the countries operating with Emirates like UAE or Lufthansa, they've a very small population and small geosurface, they're small by population and by mass, so being a small country they need very less domestic and more international flights whereas we in India need almost equal amount of domestic as well as International flights. We've a huge traffic and not to forget we're still a developing nation so, maybe the future holds services comparable or maybe better than the Emirates as we'll reach the verge of developing nation to developed nation with this much population
