Why does SR always want to give away its trains to other zones? Dont they even have the capacity to run a dedicated train with their own rake to CAPE from MS? Its the passengers who will be affected if Island Exp is delayed.
-
What will SR try to achieve by delinking the rakes of PC and MS-CAPE? Pathetic to see the way the zone is functioning. They didnt even care to build a pitline at CAPE and decongest NCJ.

Island and CAPE-MS are recently running with 22 coaches after adding one 3AC economy class.

Have seen the Pearl City rake getting parked somewhere between Kodambakkam and Pallavaram from morning to evening. CAPE Exp is stabled mostly in MS itself.

If this also gets an extra 3AC its likely all three have RSA. Let's see.

Pearl City is an independent rake now. Only 12633/34 and 16525/26 have RSA.

3 trains cannot have RSA as Total cycle is 4500km from Tuticorin MAS Kanyakumari SBC and back. Not possible even with SM at SBC as round trip will exceed 4000km PM cycle limit for a rake. Pearl city will run independently.

Rake Standardization effect at Depot, Under Rake Standardization any train can take the rake as long as composition matches, but it wiil not mean that it will have a Sharing arrangement

Train coach composition changed: Having similar coach composition in today's departure like Kanyakumari and Island SF express only up to S7 so I assume all three trains (Island, CAPE SF, and Island exp has RSA) with one another?

This train literally needs to be made as a daily train ASAP. In fact, it was a daily train in MG period.
It enjoys good patronage throughout the years, even though the TT is very slow. With Extra summer rush, several ICF rakes in hand and 90% of the route is having 110 MPS, SR is waiting for what? Literally losing good amount of revenue.

In the MG era it was a Daily train. It should be made a Daily. It should be speeded up as much as possible.

Its slot needs to be changed and made daily with better coach composition and increase in coaches and speed up. Slack is disproportionately given.
