Antyoday Express trains must be run on routes where significant long distance unreserved non ac travellers are there, like Delhi/Mumbai/Ahmedabad/Amritsar etc to Eastern UP/Bihar/ Orissa etc.
-
It has been reported that Antyodaya coach costs 40% more than and charging just 10-15% extra fare is no good deal for IR. Antyodaya shall be more maintenance prone than normal trains, Especially, the extra gadgets like Water purifier etc shall be costly to maintain.
-
...
more...

non ac general class is the most subsidised class of IR which is patronised by the poorest sections of society. These pax are most cost conscious ones and shall prefer to pay less with little facilities rather than paying more for little extra facilities oF ANTYODAY. Ones preferring better facilities at extra cost shall travel in reserved berth of sleeper class.

All what you have said has nothing to do with the poor patronage of this. Better route selection is the key behind the success of any train, unreserved train should be introduced in areas having huge influx or outflux of migrant workers like from Bihar/Eastern U.P to NDLS or from Eastern U.P/ Bihar to Mumbai. This train would also have a success story if it gets extended up to GHY, except that nothing could change it's fate. Thanks to the appeasement policy of indian railways, balancing act needs to be done irrespective of it's financial implications.

The first cluster of cities mentioned are areas where influx of migrant workers are there and second cluster is the source of the migrant workers.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
