Now there are 4 slots through the ghats one for morning ICE ( karwar/gomateshwara) another slot for karwar/kannur express another fresh daily slot for Vijayapura Special and a tri-weekly slot for MAQ - YPR Express...this tri-weekly slot can be expedited to run another MAQ - KCG Bi-Weekly Express (via SBHR) and another bi-weekly express to Bidar....so there would be total 8 slots both up and down with sufficient trains.....
