After completion of Shravanabelagola rail route, railway authorities are diverting various trains from Bengaluru to Mangaluru via Shravanabelagola. This route though reduces the distance between Bengaluru and Mangaluru by upto 4 hours but trains do not go via Mysuru. Due to this reason rail users and stakeholders have raised concerned over it demanding additional trains via Mysuru. Train Number 16517 / 16523 Bengaluru – Kannur – Karwar will be one of the trains that will be diverted through the new link route. This train till date runs via Mysuru providing option for passengers of Mysuru. Currently there are two routes for trains originating from Bengaluru – via Mysuru and via Hassan. Rail officials say that amalgamated trains will run via Shravanabelagola and new day trains will be operated via Mysuru. |
