Disagree:Bad suggestion.
For Benefits of North Goa Ministry of Railways should extend All 3 SCR Trains 17419/20 , 17021/22 & 17039/40 upto SWV with halts @ MJO for VSG Passengers, KRMI, THVM & PRN without obstructing MAO Dep Time.
MAO Dep - 4.30 am
SWV Arr - 6.00 am
SWV Dep - 8.00 am
MAO
...
more...
Arr - 9.30 am
90% Passengers and Tourist, Pilgrims getting down @ MAO.where they need to hire Cabs to Travel to North Goa which are very costly in Goa and Majority beaches, Resorts , Clubs located in North Goa including New Manohar International Airport ( MOPA ). VSG is very less Populated and Trains from MAO almost going Empty to VSG.
This will ease Traffic Movement @ VSG for SWR in morning Time and By extending SCR Trains will get Benefited to All over Goa including Tourist & Pilgrims.

Here are some facts check the population of Mormugao Taluka and it's geographical area.
Vasco Da Gama is located in Mormugao Taluka and basically Vasco is itself Mormugao Taluka.
It's the smallest taluka in Goa but in terms of population density it's the most dense.

Revenue of VSG.
There is basically no justification for shifting terminals of SC, HYB and TPTY trains to Karmali.
In terms of infrastructure and the overall facilities available in the city Vasco is miles ahead of Karmali.
It's foolish to ask shifting of trains from a urban centre to a village whose only recognition is close proximity to Panjim.

I'm saying Extending it upto SWV not KRMI. SWV is underutilize station also Extending SCR Trains it will Benifit All over Goa South to North & Vice versa.
Also full fledged PRN station with Proper Terminal Facility development is on Railway Ministry's Card for MOPA Airport Connectivity So in future it can Terminate upto PRN.
VSG trains are only benefiting South Goa.

Re# 6219709-6              
Also in future SWR May not take any New Trains to VSG due to Terminal Constraints @ VSG and Also No scope for any Terminal Expansion @ VSG. So SWV ( KR ) can act as a secondary Terminal for Goa for Some Non VSG Base Train which will benifits Both North & South Goa.

SWV is not in Goa it's in Maharashtra and all the trains you are saying to get extended are exclusively for connectivity to Goa.
If SWV is underutilized ask CR of your beloved KR to run dedicated trains from there why snatch trains from Vasco ?
Then the three trains you mentioned have only 3 hours of TAT at VSG then they return back so why should SCR give additional rake and extend to SWV ?
...
more...

Also MAO to SWV is single line and SWV too lacks necessary infrastructure for maintenance which VSG has. Why saturate the already saturated single line of KR ?
Why should 1 lac plus Vasco people sacrifice dedicated rail connectivity to Hyderabad and Tirupati for the places in Goa ?
Why don't you ask your beloved KR to extend some Gujrat and Mumbai trains from MAO to QLM ?
These trains serve North Goa and only one city in South Goa ie MAO extending to QLM will serve the population in Sanvordem and Sanguem too.

There are terminal constraints at Vasco because of only pitline and second pitline SWR can commission whenever they want and run more trains besides these SCR trains of Tirupati and Hyderabad don't require pitline maintenance at Vasco so no need for you to panick. They just occupy PF #2 for 3 hours thrice a week and leave.
The earnings of VSG which I have put up in previous post don't justify your nonsense of trains running 90% empty from VSG.
The 1.5 lac population of Mormugao Taluka (2011 data) does justify the trains VSG gets you don't have to put up nonsense like VSG is less populated because people may lie and have biases but government data doesn't.
