Today combined Guruvayur express and Thoothukkudi day Link express to Chennai at Kovilpatti station was over crowded in all the general compartments.
All the 2S - sitting reserved coaches are operated with Waiting List Passenger after the recent deep hike in Bus fares ( after 1% reduction from today ) .Bus fare reduction is purely eyewash.So the southern people prefer train travel to Chennai state headquarters and for the up country travel from Chennai Central.
So requested our Southern Railway that the Thoothukkudi day time Link expresses have...
more... to be delinked from Guruvayur expresses and operated separately an hour advance time to Guruvayur to Chennai Eggmore during travelled to Chennai .
Chennai to Thoothukkudi day time express has to be operated an hour behind Guruvayur express towards Guruvayur from Chennai Eggmore.
Thoothukkudi day expresses have to be attached with AC chair car coaches 3 nos + 2S sitting reserved 10 No's + General compartments with luggage's ,Disabilities, Ladies ,Guard etc 10 No's.
Since Tamilnadu state bus fare huge hike after reduction ,this additional day expresses from Chennai Eggmore <> Thoothukkudi are highly necessitated at this juncture for the Chennai Eggmore - Trichy - Madurai - Thoothukkudi sector.
