Re# 3599237-3              
Well written article, reflecting why the big of the south were so important, and received the respect they did.
Some factual errors in the articles regarding the Dakshin and Janata express trains though.
1) 21/22 NZM-HYB was always called the Dakshin express. This train was introduced as the Southern express between NZM-MAS on April 1st, 1964. The government was in a 'Angrei hatao' frenzy at that time and decided to rename the train to 'Dakshin', which made many south Indian political parties to protest ( As South...
more...
India was accusing the government of trying to impose Hindi on them). As a compromise, the train was diverted to HYB (where due to the predominance of Urdu/Hindi, the hindi name wasn't considered a problem to protest about) and renamed Dakshin express (From 1968), while a slip coach service operated between MAS/KZJ with the numbers 51/52.
2) Janata trains were class-less trains introduced from 1948, and were among the first trains introduced after independence. The MAS-Delhi Janata (present day Andaman express) was introduced as a Bi-weekly around 1952, and after some changes in operations (end points and schedule), starting running regularly from 1954. Sadly, being a 'slow' train, means that this train rarely gets the credit it deserves. Only veterans remember this train from the days when only the GT and the Janata were the only trains between the South and the North.
