Howrah se ek hi route hai jispe sab trains full chalne ke chances hain, aur wo hai HWH-NJP because of Siliguri, darjeeling and Sikkim bound passengers. IR has already missed a trick by keeping the HWH-NJP shatabdi at wrong side of the timings. HWH-NJP DD can be a good crowd puller if it can run opposite to the timings of HWH-NJP Shatabdi with same patronage and timings. Other than that only HWH-PNBE would be feasible, and that is also not guaranteed due to the sheer number of trains between the 2 cities.
