Just Imagine, Chennai does NOT have direct connectivity to:

1. Saurastra & Kutch region in Gujarat(OKHA/PBR/Rajkot/Gandhidam) - Navjeevan Exp started way back in 70s continue to run packed but only till ADI

2....
more...
Entire Konkan coast - Not even a weekly train in this route from Chennai, even though 4 daily trains run upto Mangalore, extending even one to Madgaon would run profitable and help passenger connectivity in this route

3. Inner Punjab(Amritsar/Ferozeppur) - Not even a weekly again. Worst even the MAS - Katra train is not restored

4. No dedicated train from Chennai to PNBE: Sanghamitra Exp started from MAS to Patna but was extended to SBC and since has reduced number in seat quota to Chennai....

5. In Rajasthan no train to Sri Ganganagar/Udaipur/Barmer

6. Uttarpradesh/Uttarakand:Western UP & UK not direct connectivity

7. Mahatrastra: No connectvity to cities like Ahmednagar/Latur/Nanded/Parli/HingoliWashim etc...

8. The cauvery Delta region does not have train connectivity to Delhi

9. CBE does not have proper connections to Delta except the single semmozhi exp; and Tiruchendur/Tutocorin

The list goes on and on.....

Only North east and east coast is adequately connected from Chennai

Need to connect Vandalur with Avadi with a western terminal at Poonamallee, such that trains comming from the south and bound for north can bypass entire coastal Chennai and have a stop at Poonamallee. This will also de-congest Egmore, Central & even Tambaram.
Also the entire western suburb of Chennai will have train connectivity.

With the growing traffic in the suburbs of Chennai, there is an increasing need to have train service in the outer suburbs of Chennai.
There should be a train line connectivity between Vandalur and Tiruvallur Via Sriperumbudur. The rates of land are increasing day by day and hence an earlier start would make this project see the light of day and will make an profitable one for the railways. Also many trains originating south of Chennai can skip the city and run through this line and help de-congest the city and also help people living in suburb by reducing the need to travel to the city.
Hope...

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake.
