Agree
Too late in reaching Bangalore. Tirunelveli to Bangalore takes almost 14 hrs. They should do something seriously to speed up in both directions.

This train speed should be increased in both Directions between Dindigul and Bangalore (SMVB).
Both trains taking more time to cross the Bangarpet Main line at Baiyappanahalli.
After diverting origin from SBC to SMVB, the problem occurs at both Direction.

for 17235 waiting for 22652 at Salem at More time (about 1 hr) to be avoided.

My best suggestion is if required, this train can also be converted to 2xxxx series with Super Fast Speed(& not only fare change).

The train can reach Bangalore to Nagercoil in 12 hrs or less instead of 14 hours.

If we see the distance between SMVB and NCJ is 70 Km less than that between MS and NCJ.

Also all trains should be given equal importance irrespective of operating zone as this benefits all people.
All trains should be treated as IR in all zones instead of SR, SWR and SC.

Similarly so many questions regarding this train.

1. If it always reaches Hosur late by 30-40 minutes, why can't the departure time changed to compensate the late timings.
2. If the train after reaching Nagercoil, is being run as an intercity express, why can't it be directly run as SMVT to TVC via NCJ.

can we expect this train to get LHB coaches and speed improvements, as this is going really slow, considering the average speed for the overall journey.
