REROUTING 17615 KCG MDU WEEKLY VIA YNK AND KJM
Train services between Bangalore and Trichy/Madurai have always been poor, with no dedicated service between the two important TN cities and Bengaluru. Both the existing daily services to TPJ and MDU are from Mysuru, and going to MV and TN respectively.
An additional service between Bengaluru and TPJ/MDU at least on weekends would greatly...
more... help passengers.
17615 between KCG and MDU runs via DMM and CTO, which hardly attracts passengers to TN. If this train can be re-routed to run via SSPN, YNK, KJM, SA, it will not only be faster but also become a much-needed extra train between 1) KCG and Bengaluru (day train) and 2) Bengaluru and both TPJ and MDU (overnight).

DMM: 1355/1357
SSPN: 1445/1447
HUP: 1600/1602
YNK: 1730/1735
KJM: 1820/1825
