This RSA needs to be relooked at.

17235/6 SMVB NCJ Exp would be a much better pairing train for both Island Exp and SWR alike.

Would also allow Seshadri's spare rake to

be better utilized elsewhere such as running a new daily between SMVB and VSKP or increasing the frequency of 17211/2.

MS-CAPE should be run with 2 independent rakes if SR does not prefer to restore RSA with Pearl City.

Kanyakumari express is running with 3 rakes with addition of one more rake and taking SMVT Nagercoil into RSA they can LHB fly as well as Shift PM to SMVT as morning Pitline of Sangamitra is free. Sheshadri will be free of RSA and can return from at 1300 with slight change in timings. SCR can LhB Sheshadri express as ot requires 2 rakes.

Re# 6058852-12              
I dont even like CSMT-MS-SA RSA. SA is a divn. HQ but it has no pitline. CAPE and NCJ are being neglected. They are just a dumpyard for long distance trains. CAPE should have got atleast two pitlines to decongest NCJ. That section hould be taken within MDU divn. PGT is a divn. HQ but no pitline. This is the plight of SR.

basically the reason for these stuff is lack of proper infra or underutilisation of existing infra like TEN which has 3 pitlines. KGQ and CAN are potential places for constructing pitlines, even there are many other examples like salem.

Why does SR always want to give away its trains to other zones? Dont they even have the capacity to run a dedicated train with their own rake to CAPE from MS? Its the passengers who will be affected if Island Exp is delayed.
-
What will SR try to achieve by delinking the rakes of PC and MS-CAPE? Pathetic to see the way the zone is functioning. They didnt even care to build a pitline at CAPE and decongest NCJ.
