My choices (1) SBC-Hosur-Salem-Erode-Tiruppur-Coimbatore-Thrissur -Ernakulam. A number of Mid sized cities on the route make it ideal for day time chaircar train(Tejas). (2) Thiruvananthapuram-Kollam-Ernakulam-Thrissur-Kozhi kode-Kannur-Manglore.

as a substantial traffic from BZA to MAS & SC both can be expected in addition to end-to-end traffic. 10.5 hrs journey is disadvantage. Overnight train is preferrable over Tejas. (4)NDLS-JP-JU could be an option, good patronage can be expected in NDLS-JP leg (5) BPL-JBP-Allahabad is not suitable as not much traffic can be expected especially in Allahabad-JBP section. 10.5 hrs journey is disadvantage.
