Unreserved MEMU special train to ply in Kollam-Ernakulam corridor from Monday

The Southern Railway is introducing a new MEMU express special train between Kollam Junction and Ernakulam Junction from October 7th to November 29th, running from Monday to Friday. This comes after protests regarding overcrowded short-distance trains. The train, numbered 06169, will depart Kollam at 6:15 a.m. and reach Ernakulam at 9:35...

a.m. The return train, 06170, leaves Ernakulam at 9:50 a.m. and reaches Kollam at 1:30 p.m. The train will stop at various stations including Sasthamkotta, Karuanagapally, Kayamkulam Jn., Mavelikkara, Chengannur, Thiruvalla, Changanassery, Kottayam, Ettumanur, Kuruppanthara, Vaikom Road, Piravom Road, Mulanthuruthy, and Thripunithura. While this new service is being implemented, challenges remain regarding the sustainability of the service due to delays in the expansion of the MEMU Shed in Kollam, the need for additional crew, and potential cascading delays if any train is delayed. The Thiruvananthapuram Division is working on resolving these challenges, and plans to rationalize train stoppages to improve efficiency.

Southern Railway ne Kollam Junction aur Ernakulam Junction ke beech mein ek naya MEMU express special train chalaane ka faisla kiya hai, yeh train 7 October se 29 November tak chalegi, Monday se Friday tak. Yeh faisla short-distance trains mein over-crowding ke baare mein aaye protests ke baad liya gaya hai....
