There are so many people from South Chennai to Bangalore everyday. Why SBC-MAS-SBC Lalbagh Exp & Intercity Exp. cannot be operated from MS instead of MAS? I am suggesting both the trains due to RSA. During afternoon MS will be relatively free.

Re# 477130-9              
yes, definitely south chennai deserves a overnight train to bangalore, may be like MS/Tbm- SBC via CGL-CJ-AJJ (it needs loco reversal at cgl) or MS-sbc via cgl-vm-vri-sa-sbc(it also needs loco reversal at VRI) eventhough this route takes more time to cover bangalore but it will be useful for many enroute passengers like TBM,CGL, MLMR,VM,CJ, if operated in the above two routes. Many IT companies are easily accessible to Tambaram so it will be very useful .if operated it will be the first time connectivity to bangalore except VM(already pdy-ypr plying via VM).

TBM-SBC. via CGL,AJJ. is a better option. It is better if it starts from CGL to avoid loco reversal immediately after 30 km.

There are scores of buses. All the buse plying on Periyar Salai touches MS. The question is not how to go to MS from MAS. It is about reaching the destination in South Chennai in MS-TBM/CGL. If people reach MS , they can get EMU in the terminal itself.
2. Suggestion of operating SBC bound day trains was with a view to utilising infrastructure facilities remaing underutilised between 08.00 hrs and 17.00 hrs at MS and giving relief to MAS.
3. If you take a census of passengers travelling to SBC, you will

find atleast 60% travel from parts of Chennai, for whom MS will be easily approachable. This can be appreciated only by persons who know the demographic pattern of Chennai.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
