Hi Friends, I am from Chennai and planning for a Goa trip on a weekend. Planning to leave Chennai on Thursday through 12601 mas to maq exp upto shoranur and catch 22149 Poorna Exp to travel from Shoranur to madgaon. I have no alternative than leaving Chennai on a Thursday night. So 12601 seems to be a good option for me. What is your suggestions? Is there a better option which could save time and allow me to reach Goa (Madgaon) sooner? Need inputs and opinions please.
