Thank you for the detailed description. Yeah taking LTT is also good but it would be difficult we have to change 3 trains till mtp. vskp-bza-mas-mtp. I agree with you that time is saved and i can catch niligiri if this option is considered, also i looked at kerla express so taking ltt till bza and catching kerla express and getting down at CBE is better rather than taking 3 trains if i wanted to skip niligiri express. but however again have to depend upon private cab till mtp.
Wondering core is the only option and hoping so it wont be delayed max( 3 hours delay is also fine it can reach by 8pm which is ok, as niligiri starts...
more... at 8:50pm. Also as it has limited stops in VSKP-MAS sector no matter how much delay it comes ( max 2-3 hours) i think it can cover in VSKP-BZA-MAS sector i what i feel, but again we cannot predict as it is early stage
