I think one of the two trains from RKL was to be a superfast and why cant we extend keonjhar-puri all the way to rourkela and even the rajdhani can take the same route going via rourkela,hatia ,mugalsarai to delhi.The talcher-bimlagarh line is being getting delayed so the railways can always start the bbsr rajdhani via rourkela through this route as well as they can do the same for orissa sampark kranti on any other day.
