This train should be regularised along with BJP MAQ Special.
When a train is running daily for years as special, with good patronage, why it can't be a regular train?
Run as UBL SBC SF

Hope things will move as planned and both lines (Tumkur Rayadurga and Tumkur --Chitradurga -- Davanagere) will be ready in next 2 years.
Considering the reputation of SWR and hold of bus operators on railways, projects can get delayed by minimum 3 to 5 more years.

As SWR is running lot of trains inside SR areas, Kottur/ Hospet public should demand a train by SR for a MAQ HPT train (can be extended to Raichur once Sindhanur line is completed).
MAQ 1930 SBHR 2130 DVG 0430 HPT 0830; HPT DEP 1830 DVG 2230 SBHR 0600 MAQ 0745.
Will be useful for Subrahmanya and Dharmasthala pilgrims from Hospet /Ballari side.

Less TAT makes the trains more punctual. What is the use of occupying platforms for 1-1/2 hours. Max 30 to 45 minutes should be sufficient.
When a long distance train (1800 kms run) NCJ CSMT with 20 coaches has a TAT of 1 hour 20 minutes at CSMT, why more than 45 minutes for an intercity train of 14 coaches? This DD/ UDAY has run just 360 kms from it's starting point.

SBC MAS and SBC CBE are evergreen routes. Always full.
Traffic is not an issue. Willingness by railways and "permission" from bus operators are issues.

NCJ CSMT (1880 Kms) has Platform Turnaround. Means gets cleaned at platform in one and half hours. Not shunted anywhere.
For Uday CBE 0630 SA 0845 KJM 1200 SBC 1230 is possible.
