The Brindavan SF Express 12639/40: There are several hundreds of Fans, regular mobile Videographers posting regularly and thousands of regular Brindavan Passenges used Brindavan is very convenient to passengers, students and office goers but the actual timings in the past is gr8 ! and the present made reduced speed, timings, instead 21-22 coaches but almost olden 24-coaches and only 6 vestibule reserved-coaches.
-The SOUTHERN RAILWAY Administration's atleast provide 15 Unreserved 'Chair-Car' if possible on humanatarian grounds so that sometimes crowded Brindavan Passengers upto Bangarpet & Kuppam (after that many coaches not that crowd) can have fresh Air and Light instead Passengers sweat & humid in old Coaches. (Even Passenger-Trains like AroKkonam-SBC, SBC-Marikuppam trains have 1-2 UR Chair Car here & there).
...

So for Brindavan 24-coach is Heavy even for WAP7 and for Curve to reduce speed between Jollarpettai>Kuppam>Bangarpet>till Krishnarajapuram daily/often running Late but not gaining Speed and couldn't adjust all Intermediate-Station to Station making reach Late to its passengers (instead partiality vestibule 21-coaches for Lalbagh also crowdy but bit speed-more adjusting time).
So Brindavan not lowered by itself but SR Administration's decision many long-distance Passengers felt discomfort and were not happy from its original-slot and Reduced Speed and almost 1 hour pushed behind because of costly AC Double Decker emergency using if Brindavan II reservation full.
-Anyway IE 20/5/2015 our Prime Minister Modi Ji is very much concerned looking into the matter of IR Express-Trains Punctuality has suffered in Arrival and Departure of trains not as per Time Table. So Railway Minister Prabhu, State Railway Minister Manoj Sinnha tab the respective zonal Manager looking improvement & run train time-time henceforth as per our PM direction.
Yet Brindavan bit improved its running timings but arrival and departure timings between intermediate stations need lot of improvement between respective Station Masters and the Locopilots to run on-time without loosing 1-2 mins extra at each stations where stopped. Yet 10 mins Late is acceptable but sometimes more than 30+mins should be avoided for all types of passengers who all travelling reach on-time and safe.
-Also looking forward as per previous SR GM Shri. Rakesh Misra in his Press Meet on 1-10-2014 that change of name for DD as "Brindavan Double Decker SF Express" and hope the present GM SHRI. ASHOK AGARWAL administration kindly apply to change this new name if possible. And this present Brindavan train SR may change and run as Saddha Express train between MAS-SBC-MAS instead of new Train as per 2014-15 budget only timings to be adjusted accordingly. thnx.

Brindavan-DD SF Express if not extended from SBC-MYS in near future due to HIGH SPEED TRACK delaying due to curves and terrains as per
@ MYS Junction welcomes you** comment on 24/3 thnx.
1) Many Passengers looking forward that SR name Change DD as Brindavan Double-Decker Express MAS-SBC-MAS with II CC 2-4 Reserved Coaches so that Long Distance Passengers can reach both directions and all intermediate-stations run on-time, instead present Brindavan deliberately dragging after introduction of new Double Decker 4/13 onwards run on Brindavan permanent Slot for last 48 years timings. No other
...

Trains like Deccan Queen, Pandiyan, Cherran, Kochuvelli-Bangalore Express changed timings but reversed due to strike and local Politicians interference Railways unable to change to their timings but running as per Passengers comfort. So in Brindavan is not lost its glory by itself but SR & SWR introduced new Double Decker AC to get more revenue for Railways, the SR removed all type of Nice CC Coaches and now 4-5 times changed the full rake of some SR old routes Dirty coaches and Ads in few coaches is big eye-soar. Atleast given automatic detergent wash at SR Yard. All SWR coaches running on this route always clean and painted and even Unreserved Coachess CC front to Last coach.
2) Even best option if SR gives Brindavan's its old slot MAS dep: 7.15a and return Chennai Central 8.15p very good Timings and 20-21 COACHES for Middle Class & Common man reach their destination EARLY & get Public-Transport. And let Double Decker can take Brindavan present timings 7.50a and Return MAS 9.00p cause DD passengers all rich have their own transport at MAS or they afford to Pay taxi charges even the train run further late.
-Our PM and Railway Minister in Election time want desperate to help Middle Class & Aam Aadmi to run Train on Punctuality, existing full Speed and reach destination on-time and Reduce slack time. But Railways happily delay this train but once Fastest Train in Diesel Engine era. Hopefully SR, SWR Officials, PROs & Administrations WILL do something as above 2 Choice they may finalize at the earliest convenient time. thnx.
