I don't know if the permanent diversion to BNC via KRR SA JTJ directly from DG will happen.... if happens then great... but I'd rather suggest that have a new train from TEN, terminate at SMVT and go via the similar route till DG but cut thru KRR SA JTJ and instead of BNC terminate at SMVT for ease... now BNC has got 2 VBs and 3 other PFs are occupied with other trains for shunting either towards SMVT or SBC.... so let's wait and see what can be done....

get that already congested during the noon time since DD and Brindavan (from Chennai) along with MDU BNC VB are running... but in order for the above mentioned thing to happen... no option way to go than trail behind MDU VB or try to be ahead of MDU VB but overtake DD and Brindavan which would further delay both these trains....

The only thing which I feel can be done is that maybe start a new VB under SWR zone from SMVT and terminate at TEN via the above mentioned route.... maybe it might benefit pax traveling to MDU or DG via SA KRR.... and another way is that we could have 2 trains... as in one from South (MDU) and one from Mid-South (SMVT)....🤔👍

He also suggested extending the route to Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala's capital, to improve connectivity with Bengaluru.

For that extn to happen one is that it should go via 2 routes:-
1. TVC-ERS-HSRA-BNC (this route distance is 773kms which is close to impossible unless full stretch is 130kmph which is never gonna happen)(instead of going via TPT-JTJ which distance is 813kms)
2. TVC-TEN-MDU-SA-HSRA-BNC (distance is 735kms and same conditions should be present as above mentioned).....

So

looking at this, what I think can happen is that, they may (if extn approved) have tri-weekly service and have a day-off.... let's wait and see how they're gonna pull this off incase it gets approved....🤔👍
