Silver line is not going to come in any case. Nobody is going to fund the same. Rlwsy wont approve. Already tendering has been awarded for Automatic signalling between ERS-SRR. Moreover speed upgrading works also in progress. with all this happening no chance of railways approving this

As per the article ', trains currently equipped with two general coaches will see their numbers doubled to four'.
When it was there earlier in some trains what was the need to reduce ? Sad to see that it has taken them so long to realise this !!! Hope they get back to the old coach composition

This wont happen. Practically not possible and wont benefit people in any case. In a regular Express train if people travel, they will reach in about 1 hrs 10 min. The metro for such a huge distance of more than 70k will have many stops and practically wont benefit. The cost for 1 km is 250 crore so one can imagine what the cost will be for such a long distance. Up till Kochi airport they can possibly try but even then that will also be a huge expenditure

Departure at 4am will not serve any purpose....To reach station people will need to leave that early which I don't think will serve the purpose. I am sure railways will themselves know this. Maybe beneficial to intermediate passengers probably from Thrissur & Palakkad. But from CBE onwards again it may be vacant since CBE-SBC there are already trains like CBE-LTT, VB, Double decker at different timings which gives more flexibility to passengers boarding from there
