I guess anticipating the extension to PGT, suddenly some passenger associations have demanded extension to Palani. Now it purely depends upon SR HQ and SA and MDU division if at all they find it feasible. From new place connectivity point of view it will make for good publicity , but to really have some good patronage timing needs to change.
The current occupancy figures for MAQ-Madgaon VB and CBE-SBC VB dont seem to show good occupancy at all. I am sure railways might be monitoring this. Train I guess is virtually running empty
please wait...Translate to EnglishI think some passenger groups are requesting an extension to Palani in anticipation of the extension to PGT. But it's up to the SR HQ, SA, and MDU division to decide if it's feasible or not. From the perspective of connecting to a new place, it would generate good publicity, but the timing needs to be changed to attract more passengers. The current occupancy figures for the MAQ-Madgaon VB and CBE-SBC VB trains don't indicate high occupancy at all. I'm sure the railways are keeping an eye on this. I guess the train is practically running empty.
