Hope Machilipatnam - Kurnool becomes a regular daily train. It's fine even if it runs to mantralayam via kurnool and gadwal. Atleast previously timings of 17251/52 would be decent to kurnool, now the timings suit markapuram/nandyal - hyderabad and vice versa. Let it be dedicated for them. Kurnool needs proper overnight connectivity to vijayawada atleast.
