In my opinion railways should permanently cancel 22463/64 Bikaner Delhi Sarai Rohilla express and should also give one more lhb rake to 12463/64 Jodhpur Delhi Sarai Rohilla express to make it daily between Jodhpur and Delhi Sarai Rohilla and should also extend 12463/64 upto Barmer and should run this train as 12463/64 Barmer Delhi Sarai Rohilla Rajasthan Sampark Kranti Superfast express and for further information refer to these blogs 6023320 , 6023329 or refer to the links given below -

/train/224780

/train/224782

And after increasing frequency of 12463/64 railways should also increase frequency of 14713/14 Delhi Sarai Rohilla Sikar intercity from bi weekly to daily and should also extend 14713/14 upto Ringas jn and should this train as 14713/14 Ringas Delhi Sarai Rohilla daily express (after 12463/64 have 2 lhb rakes and run on daily basis between Barmer and Delhi ) and for further information refer to these blogs - 6023339 , 6023632 or refer to the links given below -

/train/224788

/train/224784

And after extending 12463/64 upto Barmer railways should do rsa or rake sharing arrangements of 12463/64 with 20487/88 Barmer Delhi express and 20489/90 Barmer Mathura express and primary maintenance of total 4 lhb rakes at Barmer ( 2 rakes of 20487/88 and 20489/90 + 2 rakes of 12463/64 )

Rsa pattern should be like this 12464-14714-14713-12463-20487-20488 primary maintenance at Barmer or 12464-14714-14713-12463-20489-20490 primary maintenance at Barmer .
