Which of the four newly approved MEMU legs has the shortest journey time?
- A.Saharanpur to Meerut City
- B.Meerut City to Khurja
- C.Khurja to Meerut City
- D.Meerut City to Saharanpur
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Saharanpur to Meerut City. That leg, run by Train No. 64580, covers the distance in 2 hours 20 minutes, departing Saharanpur at 05:50 hrs and arriving at Meerut City at 08:10 hrs, making it the quickest of the four legs approved. Option B is wrong because the Meerut City to Khurja leg, Train No. 64574, is in fact the slowest at 4 hours 35 minutes, from 11:25 hrs to 16:00 hrs. Option C is wrong because the Khurja to Meerut City leg, Train No. 64573, takes 4 hours 5 minutes. Option D is wrong because the Meerut City to Saharanpur leg, Train No. 64579, takes 2 hours 55 minutes, which is quick but still longer than the morning run from Saharanpur. A MEMU rake is chosen for such sections because it accelerates quickly between closely spaced halts.
