The amalgamation bifurcation of trains (Kannur/Karwar) can be avoided. One daily train running with 4 different numbers in two routes with different TT on different days!!???!!. After reaching MAQ the train occupies PF for hours for nothing.
I have a suggestion:
Split the combined train to 2 trains. Let SR operate Kannur portion via Kunigal, MAQ and let SWR operate Karwar portion via Mysore, MAQ. There should not be PF problem at MAQ as these trains are running already with PF availablity.

It takes 3 minutes from Padil to MAJN, 30 minutes for loco reversal, refueling, crew change, and another 3 minutes for MAJN-Padil towards Thokur. This 2 hours thing is an eye wash. Now this train will face horrendous delays if the lines at Padil are occupied by freights(which they are most of the time).
Though it takes 45 minutes for entry and exit from MAJN, SR PGT will not give any preference for the train. When a new daily train is going to run, all freight train movements can be planned accordingly. Atleast let one proper faster train from coast to capital.
Padil bypass's primary purpose is to serve freights from SWR-KR. This train won't be prioritized on this freight line.
KR can be given the stretch from Thokur to subrahmanya road. Then one can see the difference. Without any major cities, KR cannot survive. Dependence on CR and SWR create problems. Thereby SR PGT problems can be circumvented.
