My suggestion is , after cancellation of this train, the rake can use for a tvc - vijayawada weekly. The kerala super fast takes about 23 hrs between these two stations. so if we take the alappuzha route , it is need only 22 hrs from tvc to bza. Thus a train from tvc on wednesday around 3pm reach tirupathy in the next day morning and at bza arond 1pm. On return , an around 4pm starting train in the same day will reach at tvc around 2pm in the next day ie on friday. i think there is enough time for maintenance for saturday morning mumbai exp... your suggestions pls

thats what i meant..forgot to mention...it can save good one hour if it bypasses SBC :)
if its goes to hyderabad on that route , the rake can't return to tvc before friday evening, because this rake is used for tvc cstm exp on saturday morning
what you have mentioned 22 hours journey can be used up to run a train between TVC and HYB either via KJM or via TPTY, whichever is feasible. As Pramodh mentioned if it runs via KJM-YNK it can cover the distance still fast.
tvc - vijayawada is 1284 km and is almost double line, tvc - hyderabad the shortest distance via selam - dharmapuri -dhone is around 1400km and is almost single line track. so i suggest to vijayawada only because the rake should returd to tvc before friday evening
Since the demand is huge, the departure at TVC can be tweaked to accomodate extra hour needed to run in this single line. Till KJM its double line and can be covered in shortest possible time.
