After a very long time, onboard 22675 Cholan Superfast from Chennai Egmore to Thanjavur Junction today. Since it has become superfast, it's run has improved very much. Few days back it took exact 6 hrs for chennai - thanjavur given the number of halts it has in this 351 kms and no of crossings that are there post sirkazhi. Still, from Chennai to sirkazhi timings wise it has free run (no crossing stuffs). Which tempted me to take this train more than 11017 LTT - Karaikal express, in which I could have got confirmed ticket till Thiruvarur and could have changed for 16187 Teagarden Express to Thanjavur, instead of RAC ticket in which I am currently travelling. Wishing it's superfast legacy to continue and sprint like Usain Bolt. If time table changes a bit, it would be perfect both directions for Thanjavur as well.

read full article... Rail users association seeks Thanjavur-Chennai Vande Bharat train on main line

The Thanjavur District Railway Users’ Association has requested the Southern Railway to introduce a Vande Bharat train between Thanjavur and Chennai. They argue that the existing Cholan Super Fast Express (Train No. 22676/22675) between Chennai Egmore and Tiruchirappalli, while meeting daily travel needs, is heavily overcrowded (over 150% occupancy). The association...

believes a second day train is necessary to accommodate the high demand, especially since stations like Thanjavur, Kumbakonam, and Mayiladuthurai are among the top revenue generators in the Tiruchi Railway Division.

Thanjavur District Railway Users’ Association ne Southern Railway se Thanjavur aur Chennai ke beech Vande Bharat train chalane ka maang kiya hai. Unka kehna hai ki Chennai Egmore aur Tiruchirappalli ke beech chalne wala Cholan Super Fast Express (Train No. 22676/22675) toh daily travel ki jarurat puri kar raha hai, lekin...

woh bahut crowded hai (occupancy 150% se zyada). Association ka maanana hai ki Chennai aur Thanjavur ke beech ek aur day train ki zarurat hai, kyunki Thanjavur, Kumbakonam, aur Mayiladuthurai jaise stations Tiruchi Railway Division mein top revenue generators mein se hain.
