    Instead of two northbound local trains starting from Mangalore and Kasargod in the morning, why not one in the morning and one in the evening. It will help the passengers from both the side.

    Train should extend upto Bhatkal because bhatkal is a major revenue and good infrastructure station with 4 tracks available to halt the train and only technical training centre of krcl presence here. any issues related to technical can be solved here.

    What an Idea Sirji

    your suggestion to to connect Bhatkal and Kasragod, two most notorious places on the west coast is really great

    Hats off to you sir.

    No need to run around for a name to that train. It can be called 'smugglers on the wheel'

    Why not for a change few lines from Mangalore Goa Mumbai and Goa-Mangalore- Bangalore??? Some ne should think of few services benefiting DK and Karnataka! Our people hardly travel to Kerala! Bangalore, Mumbai, Goa is generally frequent travel needs of DK people! Why railway is pampering Mallu's all the time??? Is it our elected leaders lack courage for generations?? I am not against Keralites, they too are part of our country. My opinion is Kerala gets more railway route benefits than Karnataka and so also employment!! Any answers???? We had two central railway ministers recently!! We can not blame any political party!! We must blame lack of political will power!

    This train should have been diverted towards Puttur – Subramanhya instead of Kasaragod since there are already trains from Kerala towards Mumbai – Pune running via Byndoor. Indeed the Mallu lobby is still influential despite no ruling party MPs at the Centre. It’s understood even our trusted Ex-Railway Minister, Mr. DVS bowed before them when he stated it was impossible to create a separate division for Mangaluru.

    Please note to start a train from Subramanya Road we need to have Pit Lines for cleaning etc. I agree Kasragod doesn't have Pit Lines but the train goes to Kannur I,e empty for cleaning etc. In subramnya Road we cannot take the train to Hassan due to Ghat Restictions, HMRDA etc. I totally agree that our Coastal belt has been sidelined with regarsdf to Railways because of the negative approach by our Politicians from the Coastal Belt. Moreover Mangalore Central and Mangalore Junction should be merged to Konkan Railway. This is the only solution. Also we need to have trains from Mangalore to Hubli, Ahmedabad etc. I request all our Poloticians to look into the actual difficulties we are facing and I hope the Current Railway Minister who is from Konkan Region takes interest and merge Mangalore area to Konkan Railway. This will help in the overall development. Also we need to have HMRDA scrapped and because of this we cannot run more trains to Bengaluru

    Byndoor station has single line at the platform/station. This train can not stop for long time here. During the one hour break before the return journey, this train has to move to Bijoor/Shiruru/ Bhatkal to allow the other trains to pass. So why can't this train be extended to Bhatkal, where many lines are available to take rest for this train..... and this help many passengers from Bhatkal/Honnavar side......

    Jossey, Suresh Prabu is a thrift minded politician & more of a CEO Material....I'm sure he does not want unnecessary costs coming in, hence 'auto' inauguration at Delhi

    But then at Byndoor, all our biggies are there to hog limelight, including husband-wife jodi, & good for nothing Oscar who did ZERO work for DK or Udipi....so there you go!!
