FM-GY/GTL-BYPL is very crucial line between North & South. It provides an alternative route to the already congested WL/KZJ-BZA-MAS. Once this gets completed this route lessens the time between CBE/MYS/SBC/SSPN/GY/GTL/ & SC /KZJ /BPQ /NGP /BPL /GWL /NDLS /DDN / CDG/ ASR/ JAT. It also provides an alternative and short route to the southern most places like CAPE/ NCJ/ RMM/ MDU/ TPJ/ KPD/ TPTY/ RU/ SA/ ED/ PGT/ SRR/ ERYN/ KTYM/ CLT/ CAN/ KYJ/ QLN/ KCVL/ CAN/ TVC from SC once GY - RU gets Doubling and Electrified.
