Which of the KA/GA routes would you like to travel in the future, if Vistadome coaches are introduced.
<
I have travelled on the HAS-SKLR-SBHR route and the part from SKLR to SBHR is Shiradi Ghat, one of the steepest BG section with many tunnels, rivers and surrounded by lush green dense forest, totally inaccessible by road.
A

more...
total of 2.5 Hrs travel through breathtaking scenery.

Of the others mentioned :
1. SBC - HPT is just plain land while HPT is near Hampi the tourist site, but the travel is through plains.
2. SBC - VSG, they have mentioned via MAJN and also SBC - KAWR, so that is split as 2 options
Karavali coast MAJN - KAWR - MAO.
And CLR - QLM which is also ghat section of 26 Kms.
3. SBC - SMET (included upto TLGP) has some good scenery of the Malnad region.
4. SBC - MYS, again plains and passing through densely populated towns, nothing that warrants a Vistadome travel, as per me.

In present route Shivamogga via Chikkamagalur is not correct. But after completion of Chikkamagalur - Sakleshpur / Hassan new line, train can run to Shivamogga via Chikkamagalur. Train route would be KSR Bengaluru / Yesvantpur - Chikkabanavar - Shravanabelagola - Hassan - Sakleshpur / Belur - Chikkamagalur - Kadur - Birur - Shivamogga

There will be a lot of angry passengers if it is attached to Amaravati. :)
Already the rake capacity has been reduced on the Braganza route with Amaravati having slip coaches as well. If one more is removed for attached Vistadome, there sure are going to be a lot of angry passengers.
Chennai-VSG would be a better option, and it runs on Saturdays mornings between LD-VSG. That will be a convenient time for many weekend tourists.

Even one vista-dome coach to current gomateshwara exp will also work, to have panoramic view of sakaleshpur-subramanya ghat route
