can Phaphamau bypass be used to connect BSB to CNB instead of main route via MGS-ALD?

Correct, Aseem. BSB can be connected to CNB via Janghai-Phaphamau bypass - Unchahar-Unnao. Trains such as Ganga Gomti, Triveni use the left line. Saket Exp. uses the middle one. Trains such as Poorva, Ganga Kaveri use the right line.

@Mani...IIRC Triveni and Bareilly-MGS pass go via Pratapgarh, so should take middle line. Others might clarify. rgds.

BE-MGS pass now goes upto Prayag only. This along with HW-ALD and 1PRL use the middle line while going to LKO as they take the longer route via PBH. Rest of the trains like Triveni, Ganga Gomti, etc., take the left line via UCR. Yes BSB can be connected to CNB by the bypass line but as of now only goods bound mainly to UCR NTPC are allowed on that bypass line.

great shot.I lived in NTPC UCR for over 11 years.Reviving memories.The line to CNB goes from UCR via dalmau takia stations.

Good shot. Nice to see semaphores still in action on such a busy section.
