Let NR bring a daily train between Delhi and Chennai. Let it go to Madurai, Rameshwaram and Nagercoil 2 days each, with common schedule between Chennai and Delhi.
No point in extending existing prestigious trains connecting metros.

It should be a reverse one with PM at BGM. Cover the distance in 7 hr 15 minutes.
Start at morning 0545 at BGM, reach SBC by 1300. Return at 1400 to reach BGM by 2115 to 2130.

Existing VB should be SBC 0615 UBL 1130 DWR 1200; DWR 1315 UBL 1345 SBC 1930.

Instead of keeping the trains on hold at odd stations, atleast on these days Netravathi and Mangala can go to MAQ and wait there for 30 to 45 minutes.

Re# 6052089-1              
I feel it is better to have one originating train from Tambaram to Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad.
Similarly, there should be trains towards south / interior Tamilnadu from Chennai Central.

Atleast one train via Main line to Karaikal/ MV/ TJ, one train to Nagercoil via chord line TPJ MDU TEN from Central. Brindavan can be...

India’s first AC railway station: where did they go wrong?

Sir M Visvesvaraya Terminal (SMVT) is India's first centrally air conditioned railway station, designed to look like an airport.

South Western Railways...
more...
(SWR) spent 6 years and over 300 crores to build SMVT, so its disappointing to see how many issues there are with its design. At a first glance, the building looks like an airport, but as you get closer and start using the space you realize that it does a poor job of all the basics.

It’s difficult to reach, uncomfortable to wait at, and its confusing to navigate. Lots of space and material have been used but instead of creating value they feel incomplete and wasteful.

This video is an exploration of the 'Overengineering & underdesigning' trend that seems to dominate the urban construction industry right now. We argue that tools and policies have led to a construction style that builds spaces for vehicles, often at the cost of building for people. Buildings in this style tend to inconvenience people.

Clear example of how not to design.
YPR Hosur line on the outer periphery (Benniganahalli overhead line) could have been connected with a C or U link to SMVT, so that Hosur line gets connected to Yelahanka and KJM line (without loco reversal).
If this was made, trains could have moved from Hosur to Chennai or Salem to Hyderabad via SMVT DMM route.

is not clear how railways will take BSRP line from Heelalige (Hosur line) to Rajanukunte (Yelahanka line).
