Re# 576908-1                  
not sure but the timings suggest that it should be pretty crowded. the reasons being it reaches in office hours so that people can join office at chennai and it is a train with passenger fares. so bound to be crowded right from tirupati. admins from andhra pradesh could explain better.

Hi,
Last week I travelled in this traint to TPTY. Up to Thiruvallur it was so crowd. After the train was free. Finally it reached Tirupati around 24.40. Around one and hour delay.
From Central it may come into one amount Platform No.12, 13, 14 or 15.
Regards,
Vasanthan.

This is the counterpart for Saptagiri.
Has loco on one end and control on the other.
Hence, no loco rev @ RU.

Counterpart of Sapthagiri is chennai Express-Sapthagiri returns as chennai express and leaves again as tirupati express and returns back-the number of the train says its a MEMU and its runs like a passenger on the strech

Re# 253618-5                  
Thank you Siddarth.
But, it has very less halts and If its MEMU/passenger, why are the halts so less?
Of course, we cannot answer why the halts are less :P.

AJJ WAM1 green color is used for Saptagiri.
Sometime SBC Shatabdhi gets the same loco.
Isn't that WAM1 or was it WAM4?

info about WAM-1
----------
Early 2800 hp SNCF design for 25kV AC, with ignitron rectifiers. Introduced in 1959, they were mostly deployed by ER in the Howrah-Asansol-Dhanbad-Mughalsarai section. They were less frequently found 'upstream' in the Delhi-Kanpur-Mughalsarai section, and in the Igatpuri-Bhusaval section of the Central Railway. Mostly used for non-express passenger trains, but some were used double-headed for freight service. Some were still [12/98] in operation on ER (Sealdah-Lalgola passenger, etc.).
WAM-1's are significant in the history of electric traction in India as they were among the first AC electrics to run in India. Like the WAG-1's, some of their advanced features turned out to be unsuitable for Indian conditions.

Re# 253618-28                  
Its not possible dat Lalgola were once pulled by WAM 1... The reason is that Krishna Nagar City Junction- Lalgola stretch was electrified just 4-5 years ago... Before dat, all Sealdah- Lalgola Passengers were hauled by WDM's, mostly WDM-2.
