& punctuality are commendable.(Constant MPS except for PSR or TSR,gets superb priority and controlling)
Usually no unnecessary/unscheduled stops. (My journey had only a 30sec halt at Lalgudi!)
Best morning option to TPJ from MS
Air conditioning is also pretty good.

Recommended to travel,it is a railfans dream to see it skip VRIDDHACHALAM JUNCTION at 110!

This is also the only train skipping VILLUPURAM Junction!


Share your feedback and experience too!
Thanks for reading🙂

Good that TEJAS used its priority.
So, a VB can be worked out with 5-6 hrs journey via mainline. Notably, they're also asking a Mrng time ICE from TPJ to MS via Mainline for a long time.
