Creeeech!!!!! We came to a halt in middle of the Ghats- Thoppur ghats that provides for descent from Deccan plateau to Tamilnadu plains- The small hills overshadowed by the bright moon just 2 days after holy with no other lightings gave a complete spooky look of the area- To avoid being distracted by the spooky feeling, my mind went back to what had brought me here

Kaveri is a train which gets benefitted the later it starts from sbc- It has high slack between JTJ and MAS and major trains from cBE side overtake it enroute to Chennai
Well Kaveri i had an awesome experience in April 2013- 8:30Pm dep from mys, 10 mins wait for Chamundi at Naganhalli, 5 mins wait for passenger to enter at Yeliyur and after all these crossed KGI at 10:57PM and reached SBC at 11:20PM

I traveled in this train within few days after extending to MV, while booking d tkt, i 4got and booked til KMU, on d day of travel we asked TTE, he said extn will b costly, Rs.60+ per person from KMU to MV, ( telescopic was withdrawn at that time). He told, this will stop for crossing at KMU, u can get UR tkt at d counter to MV and travel in UR... and told us proceed till A/c coach and d counter is nearer to A/c coach..
Ya- but then at that time there was no crossing i think- because this was the only BG train on the route and only train to MV
no, crossing was there. I got UR tkt and traveled in UR from KMU to MV( don't remember which train)
yes sir . It happens almost daily. 30 mins waiting for chamundi. Then waits near KGI for some Fifteen mins. Kaveri has huge slack. Once again it waits at JTJ for cheran to proceed first then it waits at walajah road for TVC mail to overtake it. still it reaches MAS right time.
