Railways are keeping a Nelson's eye on certain routes, especially on Andhra Pradesh. Just take example of Vijayawada - Guntur - Gooty - Bangalore railway route. No new train was introduced for a couple of years. Moreover the running time ranges from 16 hours to 23 hours (passengers and Express trains).Make This is the shortest route, but it takes a very long time to travel.
I request the Chairman, Railway board to do the following favours:
1. Reduce the running time of Prasanthi and Kondaveedu express trains drastically. (Maximum time should be 13 hours on both ways).
2. Make Kondaveedu express run daily starting Machilipatnam at 5.00 p. m. and reach Bangalore 8.00 a.m. the next day)
3. Introduce atleast two trains to Bangalore from Vijayawada one day time and one Night on daily Basis)
4. Howrah Yeswanthpur 12863/4 can be diverted via Guntur and Gooty since now this line is electrified.
5. Guntur is a divisional headquarters and the station lacks the minimum facilities like escalators, elevators etc., Even small stations have these facilities, but a divisional HQ don't have. What a pity
