Both timings and days of frequency are quite inconvenient. Dont know whether it will be patronised and will serve its purpose. Leaves bangalore on sundays !!!! Passengers would rather prefer a departure on a saturday to save on a day. It reaches mangalore at about 5.30 in evening on monday and starts its return journey at 8.30pm i.e a gap of only 2 hours. So one can imagine is the train is late the departure from mangalore is further delayed
