Some of these diversions can work out, but it is unlikely that 13351/12295 will be diverted. 13351 was diverted via PER on an experimental basis once and it created a big ruckus at that time. Since then SR has not tried that again.
Given that these are also the only daily trains to Patna and DHN/RNC/TATA from Madras, there will be many objections to letting them bypass MAS.

It will be interesting to see how they will tackle the Egmore-Beach section. The entire section has a big space crunch and stations like Park Town and Fort will have to undergo major re-modeling, and suburban tracks will have to be realigned to make space for a 2nd main line between the two.

Trains coming from GPD side and AJJ side need to be restricted @ MSB and Trains coming from VM side should be restricted @ TBM/CGL then only MS can accommodate trains from north to south

13351/2 diversion is of no use, it only reaches mas late night. If they've found it problematic they wouldn't park it for 50mins
