I think they just love to demand trains from here and there, and NR being the zone it is, simply wants to get rid of any trains over it's territory.

Now ECR has a strong political backing, so they don't dare ask for their trains. ER and NFR are the only victims left from the eastern side. Now obviously ER's trains have developed fame over time, so it becomes the easiest target.

Down south, it's NWR territory, so other zones are safe. Even Jaipur keeps losing it's trains in this 'We want everything, even if we can't sustain it' mindset.

Nishikant Dubey is the only person I truly believe can make that happen. And as you mentioned on another thread, voila, they get the credit for reviving a 'lifeline'. Because even I think replacement of Toofan should be provided.

But the problem lies in the mindset. They want to get what's already running. Why to get something new, or to sacrifice something that's from their side to get their demand fulfilled.
...

A few blogs later on this very thread, they're now theorizing the extension of HWH Duronto and the MDP Humsafar twins for the replacement of Toofan. Anything but doing something from their own side.

That'd be a new train via new route. Something like AII-SDAH and AII-SRC, same cities but substantially different route. It should work, but as an alternative.

Toofan had a different role to play. It connected major cities of UP, Bihar, WB to SGNR. It should either be restored with a better timetable or a new train should be run on the existing route.

हां, यह पूरी तरह मुमकिन है कि पूर्व रेलवे हावड़ा से गाड़ी देने को तैयार न हो, मगर दक्षिण पूर्व वाला सांतरागाछी या शालीमार से देने को तैयार हो जाए।

Speed up हो व मथुरा के बाद वाया AWR RE ROK JIND BTI रूट हो।

Even North Bengal... where are the new trains? One lone single SMVB bound Amrit Bharat (filled with slags)? Talking about Malda only (Divisional HQ), where is the long pensing demand of a superfast train to Delhi or Kerala fulfilled? Even the lone single daily train to Delhi Farakka Exp is now belonging to Balurghat (NFR division), where is the replacement of that? For time being they introduced some summer specials to Delhi, even those are now almost gone! Some years back there also was a Malda - TVC special, many thought that train would be regularized, it's gone now!

spoken about BJP Dominated North Bengal, the better. Most Railway-Accident Prone region in the entire country, yet this route is in least priority of Railways for KAVACH implementation. Apart from couple of VBs, what has North Bengal actually gained in all these years? Siliguri Jn (SGUJ) is still far from becoming a full scale junction terminal, no SF/Premium trains to Delhi, Bangalore, Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad, Gujarat, Rajasthan despite long pending demands. Complete dependence on Assam/NE trains, which already come packed up from GHY side. Couple of years back there was official news for introduction of Suburban EMU Local train service from Siliguri/NJP... Any updates on that? (attaching the news link for everyone's reference here, in case people have already forgotten).

I understand if South Bengal is not getting any new service, but what about LOYAL North Bengal - what has North Bengal got in the last 10 years? NJP, SGUJ, APDJ, NCB, MLDT, RDP/RGJ... even there was also news circulating of Jalpaiguri Road to be upgraded into a small-scale terminal. The only thing North Bengal has seen in all these years is Balurghat getting a new train (was proposed long back - everyone knew Gour would become LHB, so no slip service to BLGT would be possible), and only extension of Farakka Express... All this despite BLGT having the State President of BJP who is also an MP + MoS... Has that Chhapri-Pramanik with his Chhapri Hair Style, the ex-MP from CoochBehar been involved in even a single railway project from his constituency?

Only BIG WORDS, but ZERO Development of North Bengal - Zero Central Assistance (despite being a vulnerable and strategic zone for entire country's Defence and Trade Sectors), and all this after getting massive mandate in BJP's favour repeatedly... If you don't do anything, why do you expect people to vote you?

AFAIK There is no work going on for a EMU local service in Siliguri. New local trains are introduced with DEMU Coaches only .One of them is Siliguri- Radhikapur DEMU.
