Re# 6053294-16              
KTYM line didnt changed TT because it is small section to get any significant change. When VM CGL is doubled no one saw significant change in TT. and the things dragging KL trains are PF congestion and other infrastructure based. On other hands, VM, TPJ, MDU, TEN has lot of PF to handle trains. TCR ERN QLN TVC cannot match any of the Tamil Nadu based Major junction stations when comes to PF number and Handling. Now Ananthapuri got 6 am arrival in chennai so gap between ananthu and CAPE MS can be widen in future. If that happens then Island CAPE Ms wont be much issue. There r RSA like Pandiyan Cholan Rockfort, Mannai Chendoor, MS SA MS CSMT mail maintained perfectly, like that this may also become good. MS CAPE if maintained in NCJ, definately can RSA some trains too. I can say TBM NCJ Tri weekly can be...

made daily with MS CAPE RSA, same way with additional rakes TBM SCT SF/Silambu RSA possible. Getting Egmore maintainence slot is tough but if Tambaram given the above all trains combo or Kamban or Mannai or MS SA or MS MAQ RSA is possible technically.

Re# 6053294-17              
See NCJ Maintenance for MS CAPE works - I always support common point maintenance. That would be better clean than end point maintenance for RSA. Hopefully this turns good cause 5 years before MS CAPE used to run horribly cause of Island. Now doubling has been done let's see how it going to work

When I say common point maintenance it's where both commonly meet. For e.g.: Cheran and TVC mail should have maintenance at MAS instead of CBE. In that case its maintained daily and runs clean and on time than

TVC mail getting maintained only when it goes to CBE on 4th or 5 th day.

ASR CST exp and MAS CST express maintenance is at CST and that's better cause its common point.

Re# 6053294-18              
ASR CST and MAS CST causing huge delays on past few days due to inability to provide a spare rake and unable to recover delay of late running train. My point is if they have sufficient Turn around time and provision to keep trains clean whatever combo they planning is fine. Tea garden and kamban, pothigai Nellai, NCJ SMVT COA, CMNR TPTY MAS doesnt have common point maintainence but not so bad in running. Cleaning is done in terminals. In that way if Island and CAPE MS cleaned in CAPE it would go smoothly else issues will continously arise.

Moderator or admin, could you please change the RSA of the train to Island express and maybe with pearl city too? Thank you Please change the coach composition too. Its now running with only 7 SL, 6 3AC, 2 2AC and 1 HA1 and 3 UR.

Something strange: Even Pearl City Rake composition changed from Today's departure so I think all three trains Island, Cape and Tuticorin has RSA ?

Someone could confirm ? Thank you

Re# 5944792-8              
Not a good arrangement beyond saving a rake. The Island Exp rake at CAPE could be used for a new overnight service now that MDU-NCJ is FEDL.

Also there is a more prudent option to operate 17235/6 using Island's rake thereby freeing up Seshadri's rake at SMVB to operate a different service.

If

SR wants to take over Island and revive what was not a popular RSA with 12633/4, it should be done relieving Pearl City (could compensate by RSA with a new train or increasing the frequency of one of the trains from MS) as well as spare Bangalore CDO from secondary maintenance duties.

SR SWR should think of a SF between SBC to RMM via SA TPJ and SA MDU (tri weekly each).
Also, ONT between SBC and KIK via KPD TNM VM MV.
