Some important points to be noted about this vandebharat...
First... This route has been postponed since CBE BNC VB innaguration. At that time itself this route got priority but later allocated to Coimbatore route despite of UDAY EXPRESS on the similar route. Later one more time rake allocated to SR but that has been transferred to Ernakulam and later on that particular rake completely transferred to SMVB KLBG VB so once again it's a big disappointment for SR peoples. At last on April month 2024, it was allocated to Madurai Division for...
more... T-18 RAKE NUMBER 61 and after some weeks pitline trial conducted which confirms that this rake is just only allocated for MDU BANGALORE VB. Later then this rake was completely parked at MANAMADURAI for nearly 5 months with complete RPF Z+ security. Inbetween some announcement came that this is about to be inaugurated along with Nagercoil VB on June month by Hon. PM but due to unavoidable circumstances this ceremony has been postponed and in this time the Trial runs were successfully completed between MDU - SMVB via TPJ, SA, TPT and in that trial itself it reached the destination by 45 minutes earlier. And once again it was Parked at MNM. But in the meantime there were proposal by SWR to run this VB as special service but SR denied it due to unknown reason. And at last finally new TIMETABLE itself arrived (along with train numbers) with some major modifications today...
Modifications include =
1. Additional stoppage for this VB at NAMAKKAL
2. New Destination at Bangalore. Initially planned to operate till Sir M Vishveshwaraya Terminal (SMVB / SMVT) but now changed as Bengaluru Cantonment (BNC).
3. 45 minutes early arrival for 20672 BNC MDU VB which created another competitor for VAIGAI EXPRESS.

please wait...Translate to HindiKuch important points hain jo is Vandebharat ke baare mein note karne wale hain...
Sabse pehle... Ye route tab se postpone hua hai jab CBE BNC VB ka inauguration hua tha. Us waqt ye route ko priority mili thi lekin baad mein Coimbatore route ko allocate kar diya gaya, jabki wahan pe UDAY EXPRESS bhi chalu hai. Phir ek baar aur rake SR ko allocate hua par wo Ernakulam ko transfer kar diya gaya aur baad mein wo rake SMVB KLBG VB ko completely transfer kar diya gaya, toh phir se SR wale logon ke liye ye bada disappointment hai. Aakhir mein April 2024 mein, ye Madurai Division ko T-18 RAKE NUMBER 61 ke liye allocate hua aur kuch weeks ke baad pitline trial hua jo confirm karta hai ki ye rake sirf MDU BANGALORE VB ke liye allocate hua hai. Phir ye rake MANAMADURAI mein lagbhag 5 mahine tak park raha with complete RPF Z+ security. Beech mein kuch announcement aayi thi ki ye Nagercoil VB ke saath June month mein Hon. PM dwara inaugurate hone wala hai lekin kuch unavoidable circumstances ki wajah se ye ceremony postpone ho gayi. Aur is time trial runs successfully complete hue MDU - SMVB ke beech via TPJ, SA, TPT aur us trial mein ye destination tak 45 minutes pehle pahucha. Aur ek baar ye MNM mein park hua. Lekin, beech beech mein SWR ne is VB ko special service ke liye chalu karne ka proposal diya par SR ne ye unknown reason ke wajah se mana kar diya. Aur aakhir mein naya TIMETABLE (train numbers ke saath) kuch major modifications ke saath aaj aa gaya...
Modifications mein hain =
1. Is VB ke liye NAMAKKAL mein additional stoppage
2. Bangalore ka naya destination. Pehle plan tha ki Sir M Vishveshwaraya Terminal (SMVB / SMVT) tak chalega par ab change karke Bengaluru Cantonment (BNC) kar diya gaya.
3. 20672 BNC MDU VB ka 45 minutes pehle pahuchna jo VAIGAI EXPRESS ke liye ek naya competitor bana.
