This is such a waste of time, bro. What do you think the metro fare would be for a 70 km ride? Is it worth it for people who use it every day? Just trying to mess with everyone's head. SWR ain't making any progress in Karnataka, especially in Bangalore. They're always coming up with excuses. Next thing you know, they'll say the metro's going to Tumkur, so they won't run local trains between Bangalore and Tumkur. If they really cared about developing Tumkur, they should focus on finishing the Tumkur Davanagere line and Tumkur Rayadurga line. And also connect the YNK DMM line with the SBC TK line.

Hey, railways be up to some sneaky business again. They're thinking if they hook up the local train service, Ola, Uber, and AC buses will take a hit. These guys gonna drag their feet on purpose so the railway work never wraps up.
Why didn't they spruce up Doddajala station when they were expanding the Devanahalli line before? What's up with this sudden burst of genius now?
Why BMTC and railways ain't teaming up to run short trains between the city and YNK or Doddajala stations?
Railways, keep playing your games. One thing after another. No solid progress happening here. KIA Airport's been a rival for 15 years now, but the rail connections are still a mess. 🤔

Arre bhai railon ki phir se koi nayi chaal! Agar local train link bana diya toh Ola Uber aur BMTC Vayu Vajra AC buses ki toh lag jayegi band. Ye sab will make sure ki railway line hamesha progress mein rahe bina complete hone. Doddajala station ko develop karne ka plan hai, toh phir Devanahalli line ko double aur electrify karte time kyu nahi kiya? BMTC aur railways ko kya problem hai jo city aur YNK ya Doddajala stations ke beech 3 ya 4 coach trains nahi chalwa sakte saath mein? Koi setting hai kya in logo ke beech mein? Arrey yaar, bas! Railways ki gandagi phailani band karo. KIA airport shuru hote hue 15 saal ho gaye, par rail connection ab tak nahi hua. 🤔

Alright, dudes from South India, check it out:
1. Shorten SR PGT division to Manjeshwar. Stick MAQ, MAJN with SWR. Make Karwar division stretch from Thokur to MAJN.
2. Move Pollachi Kinathukadavu section from PGT to MDU, include Kinathukadavu to Podanur from SA to MDU. Trains can slide between MDU CBE smoothly.
3. Shift SCT to QLN from MDU to TVC.
4. Shrink TVC to Nagercoil outer. Ship NCJ NCT CAPE up to TEN to MDU.
5. Slide HSRA Omalur from SWR to SR.
6. Toss Wadi to Hotgi outer to SCR. Will ease trains from Kalyana Karnataka region to the north, and coastal Karnataka.
7. Hand MAO VSG to KR Karwar division.
8. GTL WADI remains in SCR no matter if GTL division switches to SCoR or not.

We gotta set a cool rule on how many zones each state should have. I say max 2 or 3. If a zone covers some area/big city in a state, the zone must have a division HQ there. For instance, if SR wants to keep MAQ or CR wants to keep Wadi Kalaburagi, those divisions should plant their HQ in MAQ and KLBG. For Karnataka, SWR handles south and northwest zones, SCR handles northeast zone, and Konkan railway takes care of the coast. SR and CR regions should move to SCR or SWR. 5 zones for Karnataka is way too much, man.

Combine the TVC and PGT gangs to make a cool new ERS crew. Hand over the Karnataka and Tamilnadu spots of PGT and TVC to SWR MYS and SR MDU crews. I'm talking about everything past Manjeshwar up north to SWR. Everything past NCJ up to TEN goes to MDU team. After POY, it's all MDU's. Bring QLN Tenkasi from Madurai. The whole of Kerala's rolling with one squad. Let as many local fast trains run within the state (JS VB ICE are all fast in Kerala).

Dope story. Kerala got 935 kms of train tracks (Parassala to Manjeshwar, Kayamkulam to Ernakulam via Alappuzha, Thrissur to Guruvayoor, Shoranur to Nilambur, Palakkad to Muthalamada). 935 kms ain't enough for 2 divisions, man. Some others got like 1200 to 1300 kms in just one division, like Guntakal, Secunderabad for example. To make it smooth, let's merge up to NCJ and POY and roll as one kick-ass Kerala division with base in Ernakulam. Boundaries are messed up, so Pollachi, Nagercoil, Kanyakumari, and Mangalore are taking the hit.

Nice kahani. Kerala me total 935 kms ka railway line hai (Parassala se Manjeshwar tak, Kayamkulam se Ernakulam via Alappuzha, Thrissur se Guruvayoor, Shoranur se Nilambur, Palakkad se Muthalamada). 935 kms par 2 divisions ka justification nahi hai, kyunki bahut si divisions 1200 se 1300 kms tak hoti hai ek hi division me (jaise ki Guntakal, Secunderabad). Continuity ko dhyan me rakhte hue, NCJ ke bina aur POY ke bina tak ek integrated Kerala division Ernakulam me HQ ke saath banaya jaa sakta hai. Is haphazard division boundaries ki wajah se Pollachi, Nagercoil, Kanyakumari aur Mangalore pareshan hai.

DMM and GTL should be in SCR GTL team, And GTL and KLBG should be in SCR SC team. If whole GTL team moves to SCOR, then DMM should go to SWR and GTL KLBG to SCR SC, otherwise Karnataka will get one more team with HQ far away. Currently, Karnataka is covered by zones with HQ in Hubli, Chennai, Mumbai, NaviMumbai, and Hyderabad. No need to add Vizag to the mix.

The train that was causing all the trouble in Brindavan. Now heading to Palakkad in a new form!
