I think they will attach Narayanadri with some or the other train. Never expected COA/CCT to agree with this arrangement for Gowthami. Akada Seshadri tho pedte Inka bagundedi.
Devagiri must have RSA with some or the other trains for the current schedule. I think they thought Gowthami is the suitable choice because of its TAT. Maybe they will still maintain the cleanliness even after RSA. But still feeling bad for Gowthami as this is one of the best maintained train in SCR even after getting LHB.
I think they do need to give 4 rakes. If Devagiri is speeded up and leave CST little around 16:00 PM and it can reach SC station around 10:00 ish and the same rake could leave at 13:00 or 14:00 PM - in that case it will only be two CR rakes.

Grand Trunk Express is truly the lifeline of Many Small towns lying on GT Route.
It provides a fast connection to the national capital Delhi and Chennai to many small stations lying on that route
No doubt it is somewhat slower than Prestigious Tamil Nadu Express but GT Is no less than TN Despite having more halts It is just 2hrs slower than TN Express betwee Chennai and New Delhi with 24 more halts.

mm kolaveri fan. I never come across this much dedication to this train since I joined here in 2012.
GT express to TN express is like comparing and saying Charminar is better than HYD MAS SF express. Deep down we all know, GT is awesome and so is HYD MAS SF express. Some trains gets their prestigious status by name
GT is older than TN and is equally faster with stop (recently speeded up too)

Except that old TT of 12840 was perfect. Now, it is like you can't even express it in words.
Grand trunk is literally like the grandpa of the MAS NDLS route, it likes to figure out and take it's time to serve all states. Tamilnadu is young adult around the block which just moves at a faster pace.
This train should be made to run with LHB rake with RSA to Narayanadri SF express.
Train should leave TVC at 06:30 AM to arrive Lingampalli at 10:00 AM -- can leave as Narayanadri at evening at 17:00 PM to arrive at Tirupati around 05:00 AM and PM the whole day and the return train will leave TPTY around 18:00 PM to arrive Lingampalli at 06:00 AM to leave Lingampalli as Sabari express around 13:00 PM to arrive TVC at 16:30 PM with SC at TVC

Line up in front and behind shabari is huge bidirectionally in KL i believe. Though it can take FEDL advantage and can get speeded up, every train front and back needed to be altered if this is supposed to get speeded up, needing an entire revamp. I wonder how they will do it.

TN yes speed up maybe possible but not to forget that it enters KPD - TPTY single line stretch at prime slot where significant number of crossings it should handle and also should consider guntur - pagidipalli section as...

TVC departure at 0630 means conflict with Venad, Parasuram, Raptisagar, that whole slot is just jam packed with fast passenger like trains. Instead of aiming for SF, SC should just extend it to NED via MUE - NZB or BIDAR via VKB. Basically, a station with PM facilities or just continue RSA arrangements with 4 dedicated rakes for this train. At this point, I don't see SR budging even a bit. If only trains ran faster in Kerala without being fast passengers, we wouldn't have had this issue. Best bet would be an evening departure from TVC for faster schedule in Kerala or departing behind Kerala SF. Even then, there is a risk of getting caught up in the huge line up of Night time SF that will simply overtake Sabari, and PM at SC will become an issue, rescheduling, many know how that is going to work out.
A year back there was a proposal for rake sharing of Nethravathi & Matsyagandha which meant that the Nethravathji towards Mumnbai would have had to leave TVC early. As a result of its preponement, there was also a proposal to make Sabari exp leave early as compared to its current time so that PF is available in TVC. There was also a talk about making
Sabari leave from KCVL instead of TVC. The dep time was almost the same time as what you have suggested here. But I guess none of them have materialized till date. Nethravathi rake sharing with Matsyagandha is on cards. Maybe once that happens cascading effect might probably see Sabari leave TVC slightly earlier

Its going to change to 06:30 AM time anyway - Netravati and Madsyagandha are going to have RSA and Netra's time is going to change around 07:00 AM or 07:30 AM from TVC - Not sure about the date when , so in the source it said Sabari is going to be advanced by 15 mins which will make it leave around 06:30 AM from TVC. So this plan that I gave is anyway going to happen cause of the RSA proposed.
Correct, I think the RSA is going to happen soon for Netra and Matsya and Sabari will be advanced anyway. They mentioned in article Sabari will be advanced by 15 mins, I assume if they do that it's better to make it SF and take PM and run as dedicated train or run as SCR train with Narayanadri RSA with speed up in timing.

Azad hind is ruined not for SER only, other zone is responsible also. Who have told CR not to allot lhb rake. Or an extra icf rake.
If successive governments(last 10-20 years)would have increased the laying of new tracks forecasting the demand we would have not seen such a mess.
HWH BZA route is now almost 130 kph MPS I was expecting they will speed up trains here but almost all trains slowed there.
Railways should now fast track projects of doubling, tripling, quadrupling, DFCs, new routes as existing lines are getting highly saturated.
