Chennai Central-Mangalore Central Superfast Express to Be Extended Till Murdeshwar

Request was made to Konkan Railway Corporation Ltd. (KRCL) to allow extension of the Chennai Superfast Express to Kumta so as to cater to the travel requirements of people in the coastal region to and from Chennai. Extension of the train till Kumta will help a large section of travellers as there was no direct connectivity to Chennai from this coastal region.

KRCL has given operational feasibility for extension of Train Nos 12685/12686 Chennai Central-Mangalore Central Superfast Express towards Karwar. However, the train may be extended only till Murdeshwar and not till Kumta as demanded, KRCL said. This was keeping in mind the constraints of handing over the train to Southern Railway to maintain the existing timetable of Train Nos 12685/12686 between Mangalore and Chennai.

Train No 12685 on its arrival at Mangalore Central at 7.10 a.m. could be dispatched towards Murdeshwar at 7.20 a.m. to reach the destination at 11.10 a.m. In the return trip, Train No 12686 could leave Murdeshwar at 11.50 a.m. to reach Mangalore Central at 4 p.m. After undergoing maintenance, it could leave Mangalore Central for Chennai at 4.55 p.m. as per its regular timing, KRCL has said.
