This is what u call a "SUPERFAST".Departed Erode at 11.50am and reached Ernakulam 16.40pm in 4.50 hrs with an AVG speed of 68km/hr.This was possible becoz it was not trailing behind Venad Exp.
They can extend this train till tvc right. Then there will one more direct train to bangalore from tvc. Moreover places like cbe , pght will have a direct connectivity to tvc in day time.
Extension to TVC in not feasible 18hrs journey in 2S difficult one....
with current speed 12677 will easily reach tvc 8-815 pm. only 14-14.5 hrs total journey. parasuram and ernad already takes around 16 hrs a day from ncj-maq, which has only 2s and cc. compared to that 14 hrs is less.
Moreover in the current schedule, around 15 hrs the rake is kept idle in Ekm (evening 5 pm to moring 9 am) which can effectively utilized if it extend to tvc

Extending to TVC with current timings will be difficult. You have 12075 JS leaving for TVC from ERS @ 1725 via ALLP. 16301 SRR TVC Venad Exp departs ERS @ 1700 via KTYM. So accommodating one more SF Express through either routes is a tough call.
