Extension or not, this is one train that runs empty.
Crowd uses from YNK onwards but that too less.
-
Most successful train of this route is the morning train from Kolar to Bengaluru.

They know its fate. Last time also it was Poor patronage & reverted back to Devanahalli. The timings doesn't set people to travel towards Chikballapur at that time & Second issue is Originating/Terminating point being YPR. If it was SBC, Some could have taken. So people will travel on buses only.
This is run just for the sake of being intro during a budget. 2 DEMUs came. That NMGA they quickly cut losses and ran railbus. This they are stuck with.
My Question - Why IR not interested in Railbus concept for running in such sections ? Lot of Fuel savings can be achieved. No need of PF's at big stations, just allow at some sidings with low level PF's. Atleast few will take, No need to say Poor Patronage - 8 Coach DEMU, only 10-15 takers.
