Disagree:Not Practical
As this is running on a really circuitous route, can run via PGT CBE POY instead of PGT PGTN POY.
This can act as perfect overnight train between TVC and CBE. Perfect ICE between CBE MDU.
Nothing is lost for PGT POY route as PGT TCN express is just ahead/ behind Amritha both ways.

Agree
CBE people keep demanding this.....which is a weird request. You are adding addiitional running time. MPS of 45 km/hr between PGT-CBE due to speed restrictions will only add to running time. Then instead of having reversal at PTJ, go all the way till CBE and then reversal .There is a decent chunk of passengers from Kollengode which use this train and got a stoppage after years of demand. So that will be an issue. Most likely there is a possibility of resuming CBE-RMM overnight which used to run during MG era. And also heard about that the morning CBE-POY train running currently could probably be extended till MDU. There seems to be some constraints in MDU in receiving trains at certain PF. Recently there was a yard remodification done. So hopefully the infra is now sorted out. Also hear rumours of SA div wanting to use rakes of Silchar-GHY...

No need of rerouting Amrita Exp via CBE. Already, this train is well patronized in the PGTN POY route with good amount of people boarding/deboarding at Palakkad Town & Kollengode. Several people are commuting this train from these areas as to connect to the Regional Cancer Centre,Trivandrum. As you would be fully aware, Amrita Exp ran as ONT from PGTN to TVC originally & later extended to MDU after the GC was over in this route.

As our member rightly pointed out, extension it will be wastage of time & resources

in the highly congested CBE stn as the arrival & dep will clash with the timings of several trains originating & terminating at CBE. It would add up a minimum 2 hr extra running time due to the Walayar Ghat speed restrictions & Loco Reversal at CBE.

Already the RB rejected this suggestion made by the CBE Representatives due to the above factors. Better ask for a new train in this route.

I know that extension of Amritha to Madurai is unwarranted. But when SBC CBE ICE got extended, or when many Trains were dumped at MAQ, was it necessary? When trains from Konkan were denied to Coimbatore or to south TN via PGT POY route , was it justified?

When the GC was completed in the PGTN POY PLNI section during 2013-14, there were acute shortage of coaches. So, railway authorities informed no new trains could be started but only extension is possible.As a result, Amritha got extd to MDU.
