Purushottam Express might be a good choice for passengers from Kolkata for going to Puri and Delhi.

If you can't get a seat in Puri/Delhi Bound train from Kolkata, you can take Purushottam Express.

For going towards Puri
Take Howrah Medinipur Local at 6:10 pm and reach Kharagpur and then take a Toto towards Hijli station, they will take arround 150 bucks. And then take 12802 Purushottam Express from Hijli.

2) For going towards Delhi
You have to reach Hijli station by 10 pm, it's not recommended to reach Hijli arround 12 to 1 am for your safety. You will have waiting room for resting. After resting, take 12801 Purushottam Express from Hijli to Delhi.

If looking to book ticket from Ahmedabad, book instead from Botad Junction. This is the last station to have General Quota tickets (GNWL) and thus better chances of confirmation.

Passengers traveling to Mysuru from Sur/Bjp/Bgk/Gdg by this train and want to save both time and money. Catch 56267 Ask-Mys passenger from Arsikere , you will reach almost ~2 hrs early(9:30) and also save in fare.

A good idea, but there is only 45 minute gap between Golgumbaz arrival and the passenger departure at Arsikere. You need to keep some time for buying a ticket at arsikere. What happens if you miss the passenger, you end up paying more money for journey extension (without telescopic benefit).

30-45 mins is sufficient i guess, It depends on how much will be the crowd in the early morning and number of counters at ASK. We have another way, if your taking BPT from counter for GG exp, mention reservation upto ASK and ticket upto HAS/MYS, which can be used further for this passenger train.

I have followed this tip twice in the last month. And missed ASK-MYS passenger both times. The first time Golgumbaz was almost half an hour late, and the second time Golgumbaz got to the platform when ASK-MYS passenger left the station. I took the bus to reach MYS. It's a risky bet.

Better catch an Udyan Express and go to the SBC and catch the buses from Majestic to MYS. At least you will have the option to go to MYS rather than be stuck at ASK. I was traveling from

If you're travelling from Solapur you have direct train Basava Exp to Mysuru.
Udyan extension to Mysuru is also under discussion.
Getting availability in Golgumbaz express is easy than Udyan. .
There are two more chains to reach Mysuru
1.

Udyan till Guntakal and Catch Hampi Exp.
2. Udyan till Bengaluru and Catch Kacheguda - Mysuru Exp.

Use this train as your first preference. Faster than the Mail, also ISO certified and comes with LHB coaches. Since Mail is the most preferred option, ticket booking might be slightly easier in this compared to the Mail.

Lucknow Mail gets filled first which means ticket availability is easier in the AC Exp.
