Guys Here's a thought . Every day I observe that most of the night trains from southern districts in TN to Egmore are arriving late ( around 50 mins late ) at TBM .
And 90% of the time it is due to the late running of Rockfort Express . The trains before RF are coming within 20 minute delay .
Should Railways consider a TT change such that Rockfort departs from TPJ after Pandiyan . Rockfort has many intermediate stops where as Pandiyan has only 4 stops from TPJ
...
more...
. Instead of following RF all the way from Trichy , the TT of Pandiyan can slightly be advanced and that of Rockfort can slghtly be retarded .
By this all trains can arrive at TBM within a 10 minute delay . What are your thoughts ??

This is a wrong notion. I know rockfort always reaches egmore before time. But all the trains reach tambaram late coz they have ridiculous amount of slack between TBM and MS. I dnt think rockfort is a reason for that. This is my personal opinion. But i think pandiyan may be allowed to overtake as rockfort passengers wont mind to be able to sleep a few minutes extra.

Nothing to irritate , The other trains are SuperFast whereas Rockfort is just an express. There are numerous instances where a non SF gets overtaken by a SF

Agreed . One or two trains can be made to overtake RF

Now that Pandiyan has been alloted LHB and have been a premium train of SR , they can consider this .

RF is an express on paper due to slack.
