EMU were running in MG tracks for some time when Chord line Exp Trains were started to run in BG tracks. I think in 2004 MG EMU were stopped for a brief period of time before they were converted to BG.
During the transition time Main Line MG Exp trains were short terminated in TBM.

Day by day demand of SL coach in pandian is increasing. But instead of thinking about more SL accomodation they are removing and reducing SL berths. From atleast now, they must make 22623/22624 mahal exp daily run to compensate this .
