Very nice report sir. Most of the time it reaches KATPADI from TPTY before CBE intercity. It waits at KATPADI at least for half-an hour. This train want's to be made run daily and provide stoppages at AMBUR , THIRUPATTUR, MORAPUR in both directions for better patronage , It is possible to reach CBE before 10pm. SR were operating 2 trains with this single rack in Tamil Nadu & Karnataka .
Here people always prefer daily trains . That is the difference why 12679 is jam-packed and 22615 is not.

We boarded the train from Salem. An we saw that the MAS ICE, which was already crowded prior to Salem, got loaded with a huge crowd from Salem (most of them were daily passengers). So I personally feel that the TPTY ICE should reach Salem before MAS ICE. In this way, the passenger rush can be equally divided.. In the current situation, MAS ICE runs jam packed, and TPTY ICE runs literally empty..
On introduction of this train , it won't stop at ERODE & TIRUPPUR. Lock of planning by railways is also reason for running empty. The running time is also higher than CBE ICE with less no of stops. It has to run before CBE ICE in both directions with more stops.
