In case of kannur byndoor passenger the timings of the train was the sole reason for its loss. Starting the train at 4am will not fetch much passengers. If it would have started at a time between 5 and 6 more passengers will use this train. The unwanted 30 min halt at kasargod to and fro should be refuced and that time should be devoted for the train to run via manglore central instead of directly entering manglore junction as the daily commuters wish to get down at central. The train's running time between manglore and byndoor should be reduced and need to be extended to bhatkal. These are very possible steps railway can easily take.
