Section: SBC- MYS
Distance - 137 KMS
Fastest train: Shatabdi time taken: 2 hrs
Average travel time for Express Train: 2.5 to 4 hrs
All trains in this section run beyond sitting capacity, the express fare is just Rs 41 which half of the express bus fare.
Railways can do few things here;
1. Increase capacity
2. Introduce few more services especially limited stops. People will not mind a super fast service as well.
3. reduce

We have heard of bus lobby and Hotel lobby working against railways.
But in this case, it is the''MADDUR VADA SELLERS ASSOCIATION'' lobby that is at work . :)
If the travel time is reduced, it means fewer no of stops/crossings which implies fewer no of vadas that would be sold. :P

On superfast trains like TIPPU its around 4 and in Shatabdi one cant even smell it.
So a strong case for their

Is this REAL or IMAGINARY ? After having witnessed the HOTEL LOBBY at work in Chennai, I am inclined to believe anything now :)
