Achchedin for Bengaluru to TN coastal atleast now after SMVT inaugural there is some space for newbies(old wine in new bottle)to be launched
But biggest woes are for connectivity to SMVT From city centre and peripheral areas
Unprecedented chance for naughty Bengaluru autos to dupe fellow commuters

Train still has halt at BYPL, So connectivity shouldn't be issue as Metro provides connection to KSR Bengaluru/Majestic & beyond. Worrying factor are for those trains which start from SMVT & will have no halts at BYPL, KJM, WFD, CSDR etc.
