Even they said, this service will be stopped from june 6. But still its running and the other passenger trains which were running previously in the metre gauge line are yet to be introduced for passenger's usage. This only passenger train serves only for the people of Vellore district only and not to people of villupuram and Thiruvannamalai district. Moreover the new trains announced in the new budget is still seems to be a question mark.

Still I am spending more than Rs.400 every week to travel from Bangalore to Thirukoilur, that too in bus - sitting. If atleast one train is introduced via Thirukoilur, vellore to Bangalore, it will be more beneficial to thousands of public.

1. Except the T.No.56882, all other passenger trains are yet to be opened up for public usage.
2. Earlier in this same metre gauge line, there was train from Thiruvannamalai to Chennai Tambaram Fast Passenger service and meenakshi Express runs 7 days a week. But the southern railway new timetable doesnot boast any info of these two.
3. T.No.56881 being announced in new timetable will never serve the people for those who wants to go chennai by Pallavan SF Express. The train 56881 will reach Villupuram by 09.15. If it reaches by

more...
08.45 or 09.00, it would be easy to catch Pallavan Express and moreover for school going children.
4. Happy that Dadar - Yeshwantpur train is extended upto Puducherry as Train No.11005/11006. But the days when this train runs are not in saturday and sunday which means, this would not serve the people who wants to go Thiruvannamalai, villupuram and pondy in every week ends. The same way , return journey also not in week ends.
