DanielSebastian~ 4399 blog postsI've seen that the train boards mostly have Mangaluru in the name but the train announcements all throughout kerala refer to it as Mangalapuram. Can it be a local name for the city? It isn't official but many people do refer to it as Mangalapuram. What is the origin of this name?

That's Palakkad division's stupidity, nothing else.
It used to be announced as Mangalore/Mangaluru in Hindi/English and Mangalapuram in Malayalam only. Now they've changed it to Mangalapuram in all languages which confuses travellers from outside Kerala.
