CSMT TVC via KJM one day slot is still vacant. Other 6 days to NJC - 4 days via DMM KPD SA and 2 days via RU VM TPJ.
With the diversion of NCJ CSMT via KJM to via KPD, Bangalore lost 4 day link to Mumbai from KJM. This was one of the faster train to Mumbai.
If weekly CSMT TVC via KJM Is introduced, it will benefit many. CSMT 2035 DMM 1100 KJM 1430 CBE 2230 ERS 0230 TVC 0630. Will be an excellent train to Bangalore, Salem, Erode

and Coimbatore. Also will serve as a perfect ONT between Salem/ Coimbatore to TVC.
From TVC it can start by 0730 ERS 1130 CBE 1530 SA 1815 KJM 2215 DMM 0130 CSMT 1915.

While the suggestion may be good as per approved TT, it has ironically been slowed down end to end (Mumbai to TVC). Not sure if eventually they will follow this time ( Refer attached document). Passing through JTJ is mentioned as 22hrs which means it might cross KJM around peak hours of 8pm or thereabouts. If this is the final TT, all trains like SBC-CAPE and many others will overtake it on the way. Hope they relook at the TT especially after Wadi onwards

In my opinion there should be a humsafar on this route so atleast there's a premium train in this route and it can be with aggressive TT under 18 hours, the CC should be 8 SL + 12 3AC.

The humsafar can be full AC as well, SL is optional and can be added as per requirement

Given TT is so odd. Current TT for CSMT NCJ via KPD need revision from KPD to NCJ. When it's counterpart CSMT NCJ can reach NCJ by morning 0715, shorter route takes 3 hours more.
CSMT TVC if introduced, should be in a different time slot from DMM onwards. DMM 1245, KJM 1600 SA 2015, CBE 2300, ERS 0345 TVC 0800 should be thought of.
