Mangalore Junction-Yeshwantpur Weekly Train Departure Timing Changed: Click to Know

Train Nos. 16539/ 540 were introduced to fill a day’s void of daytime train services between Mangalore Junction and Bengaluru. While Train Nos. 16575/576 Yeshwantpur-Mangalore Junction-Yeshwantpur Gomateshwara tri-weekly Express and Train Nos. 16515/516 Yeshwantpur-Karwar-Yeshwantpur tri-weekly operated three days a week respectively, there was no daytime service from Yeshwantpur to Mangalore Junction on Saturdays and from Mangalore Junction to Yeshwantpur on Sundays. Hence Trains 16539/540 were introduced. However, the long journey hours of Sunday service, leaving Mangalore Junction at 9.15 a.m. and reaching Yeshwantpur at 8.20 p.m. did not go well with the patrons.

Under the new timing, the service leaves Mangalore Junction at 7 a.m. to reach Yeshwantpur at 4.30 p.m. En-route, the train leaves Bantwal at 7.35 a.m., Kabaka Puttur at 8.22 a.m., Subrahmanya Road at 9.10 a.m., Sakleshpur at 11.40 a.m., Hassan at 12.45 p.m., Channarayapatna at 1.11 p.m., Shravanabelagola at 1.23 p.m., Balagangadhara Nagar at 1.48 p.m., Yediyuru at 2.02 p.m., Kunigal at 2.19 p.m., Nelamangala at 3.01 p.m. and Chikkabanavara at 3.45 p.m. to reach Yeshwantpur at 4.30 p.m.
