Yes also recently the ghat section are getting lot of trains, so I think its worth introducing a new train from MAQ to MAS via SMVT
One train definately needed via shiradi ghats from chennai as there is no connectivity there. It can be for mangaluru or via KR any destination. SR never cares to run such as it feels routing via CLT attracts more revenue. Technically ghat section adding difficulty,+ via CLT u can easily take 22 coacher train which via hassan we have restriction of 14/16 i suppose. so y to sacrifice extra revenue when running time is similar.
It is true that CLT section has more pax than running via Hassan , but they could defnitely start with bi weekly and make it daily via SMVT, Hassan, MAJN (reversal), to Udupi and Goa !
/train/38784/779/1803 train like this will provide Goa, Coastal Karnataka link to Vellore and chennai. which also provide them vital xfer for pilgrim locations Kanchipuram, thiruvannamalai and pondicherry.
