hope slot of 12634 is pushed back to depart kanniyakumari at 1900 hrs permanently and to arrive at 0745 at chennai egmore so that gap is increased atleast for the existing RSA. already ananthapuri superfast is there arriving at prime slot (0605 hrs) and nagercoil - tambaram/egmore is there for four days a week to arrive at early in the morning. hoping the later to become daily soon, hope the above is done at the earliest.

Re# 6058852-22              
SR has the habit of riding on shoulders of SWR. Still after 20 years also, they think it is SBC MYS division job to run from Bangalore to Cape, Mayiladuthurai, Karaikal, Kannur, etc. They are not running any train to inside Karnataka.
Plus delay is attributed to SWR. What is this 😳
Let SWR run it's train to CAPE and take it back via MDU SA HSRA daily. This will give another faster train from south TN to Bangalore

TVC Division using CAPE and NCJ as dump yard of unwanted extensions, similarly PGT Division MAQ as dump yard. CAPE and NCJ has to be with MDU, also MAQ has to be with Mysuru division so that it can cater the needs of the respective place passengers.

SWR ubl div is also running weekly trains to SR areas. Most of the trains in sbc div run to SR be it TN or KL. SR should stop exploiting other zones and being bigger zone with lot of spare coaches should run trains into Ka towns rather then stopping at sbc area.

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.

Any idea when it will get updated ? Because it was showing WL in 3AC and in 3E it was available and I have booked the ticket as well. Need to return from Angamaly in the same train on 30th May.

Or any suggestion in which train I can return where I get a confirmed ticket ?
