Re# 5799477-8              
Yes, and the train has even been renumbered to reflect MDU division, (16851-16751) however, the circular refers to the old number. Ananthapuri which was having RSA with Sethu is now in RSA with Uzhavan Exp.

Ideally, if the train were to be speeded up, only 2 rakes would be required.

Else,...
more...
it can instead facilitate an RSA with RMM-TPTY Exp which can be made a daily decoupling it from CAPE-RMM Exp.

Wish they would put better use of the rake with the 16849/50 RMM-TPJ slot and run a new train all the way to SBC or beyond via TPJ. That would be a much sought-after train.
