Reasons for less speeds : A VICIOUS CYCLE :

Speed restrictions, Asset Failures, Blocks, LC Gates, Unusual (CRO/TPRO),

Congestion, Terminal Capacity, Multiple stoppages, Ghat & Graded sections.

Dampeners of Speed

Reversal at Junction Stations- due to non availability of chord line / Rail flyover.

Surface Rail Crossings causing serious constraints on Trunk Routes (14 crossings on NGP-BPQ (211km) section on account of Goods shed / sidings).

Existence of Level crossing gates.

Inadequate capacity and longer halts at Junction stations cause Inadequate capacity and longer halts at Junction stations cause detentions / slowing down.

Terminal Constraints and Section Congestion both for Coaching and Terminal Constraints and Section Congestion both for Coaching and Freight trains.

Service strategy : To achieve Avg speed –

Deciding Sectoral Strategy Service strategy : To achieve Avg. speed –

Premium services - 90 - 100 kmhSuper Fast trains - 80 - 90 kmh other Mail/Exp. - 70 - 80 kmhother Mail/Exp. 70 80 kmhMEMU/ DEMU - 50 – 60 kmh

Route strategy : Speeding up trains on Golden Quadrilateral and Diagonal Routes.g

Infrastructure strategy :• Terminal capacity – Adequate handling and maintenance facility &

their segregation to avoid shunting (500 shunts / day at ALD Jn)• Junction station design – Should avoid surface crossing of traffic

coming from different directions (Chord lines & Grade separators)• Upgradation of Track to increase Speed Potential to 110/120/130 kmh

(C&M I / Vol I needs review)(C&M I / Vol-I- needs review) Rolling Stock strategy –

• Uniformity in speed of various types of Rolling stock -Coaching stock – 61 types, Goods stock – 68 typesCoaching stock 61 types, Goods stock 68 types

• Replacement of rolling stock by LHB coaches & MPS of 130 / 160 kmh

Strategy & Innovations in Operational Practices :Coaching Operation

Maximum halt time of Mail/ Exp. trains to be reduced to 5 minutes atJunction stations. Synchronising all activities.

p g p

Rationalization of stoppages : guideline for Mail / Exp. @ 200 km,Superfast trains @ 300 km, Rajdhani / Duranto @ 400 – 500 km matchingwith crew change requirement.

Revamping of Paths, Platform Occupation and Maintenance facilities.

All LHB Trains should run at 160 kmh / 130 kmh. Trains to run in convoysystemy

Speeding up by eliminating loose timings at various Inter RailwayInterchange points

Discontinuation of poorly patronized services to enable creation of path Discontinuation of poorly patronized services to enable creation of pathfor other trains.

Discontinuation of slow moving Passenger train service fromQuadrilateral and Diagonal Routes till provision of separate suburbanQuadrilateral and Diagonal Routes, till provision of separate suburbancorridor.

Discontinuation of Slip coaches and combined Coaching (link) trains.

Recommendations Universal Certification of Rolling Stock eliminating need for

individual sanctioning of route & stocks from CRS.

60 t f C hi lli t k (C ti l CBC & LHB) N t 60 types of Coaching rolling stock (Conventional, CBC & LHB). NotReplaceable, thus large inventory causing congestion.

Standardization of Coaching Rakes will enable First in First out Standardization of Coaching Rakes will enable First in First out,reduce Rescheduling and avoid out of path running.

Variety of Freight stock (68 types) with different loadability and Variety of Freight stock (68 types) with different loadability andspeed create maintenance and running problems.

On Golden Quadrilaterals and Diagonal Routes sidings are takingg g goff from Main line. Surface crossing affects mobility. Concept ofservice line, as being done on DFC & Highways needs to befollowed.

ROB C t Sh i t b itt d f b 50 K i t d f

Recommendations (Contd) ROBs Cost Sharing to be permitted for above 50 K instead of

1 lakh TVUs applicable at present. Solution for delay in construction of ROBs. State Solution for delay in construction of ROBs. State

Government will now construct all ROBs in Maharashtra. Mobility Improvement Planning required at major Junction
