Train is having an awkward running timing between Punalur till Trivandrum.The train departs at around 15:50 from Punalur and is terribly slow till it reaches Quilon.It is holded at outer tracks on approach at Quilon.It is further holded at Quilon to pass other express trains like Parashuram express,Netravati Express which plies at the same direction on same time frame.
Nearly 30Minutes up to an hour is on hold at Quilon Jn for the purpose.Nightmare journey.
