if left in TBM that will go deep down south in coming years, let the prestigious trains start and originate from main central stations itself and train is slowed when the train is TBM letting it MAS is the best thing

TBM people always traveled to MAS, its tough for West and North people to travel to TBM but its easier for TBM people to reach MAS. TBM is not the city whereas Chennai is. TBM to MSB has EMU every 5 mins. So its not so tough.

GT is always a MAS train

I would wished this train to be at Tambaram permanently as well instead of Central. I had wondered that for the first time a train dedicated to Delhi was given to Tambaram, also known as Gateway of Chennai. Yes I agree with the legacy of this train, However after extension It had benefited passengers coming from Southern parts of Tamilnadu, they can easily change train at Tambaram instead coming to Central. Also SR is highly reluctant to start an new Daily train to Delhi from Madurai/Trichy side as even in Delhi there are many families belonging from that areas as well too...

Agree Useful
GT TN Andaman are dedicated to chennai. so extending beyond it wont be good. Thirukural/TNSK/MDU CDG/Kongu frequency can be increased. Like Vivek, Himsagar can be made daily. Kanyakumari Sri nagar himsager daily would be boon for Delhi, Punjab, kashmir.

GT, TN, Andaman are dedicated to MAS. Please ask Tirukkural and TNSK to be as single daily train to Kanyakumari via MS by cancelling their rsa and mahal daily.

GT should be back to MAS and so TN they both are MAS train / BBQ yard/MAS div

Re# 6114420-6              
Hmmmm NOOO! Asking TN to start from TBM is like making Telengana to start from Vikarabad , so NO.

Instead they could make TNSK , Tirukkural as daily to go via TBM.
