Mixed reports on this. Some news came few months ago that there are some issues in ERS pit line for accommodating and maintaining this train. Later on it was mentioned that it is sorted.Ths fastest train currently is taking 10.5 hrs.
With speed restrictions in ERS-SRR by pass stretch and then again in PGT-CBE stretch, the only place where train can attain maximum speed is between SRR bypass- to PGT and then CBE-SBC. Not sure if train can cover entire end to end journey in 8-9 hrs !! For the same rake to return , the TT might end up being very odd. We will have to wait and see. Not sure if VB sleeper will be introduced later in this route

SBC MAS and SBC CBE are evergreen routes. Always full.
Traffic is not an issue. Willingness by railways and "permission" from bus operators are issues.

NCJ CSMT (1880 Kms) has Platform Turnaround. Means gets cleaned at platform in one and half hours. Not shunted anywhere.
For Uday CBE 0630 SA 0845 KJM 1200 SBC 1230 is possible.

Ah.. yes... u got the point... true...👍👍 u should come to BLR's KJM area and see the chaotic traffic.... OOF... when I was heading to MAS, I was to board the SBC MAS DD and ETA was 150pm... I reached there 5mins before ETA (luckily train came 10mins late).... and ideal timing from apt to stn is just 20mins.... worst case 30mins (with traffic).... despite leaving apt at 1245pm, I reached the stn 5mins before ETA.... that was close call....😑😑

Hmm.... ur point is considered... let's hope for the best....👍👍
