A SF train with 27 Halts within 700kms doesn't seems Fair.
Aduthurai, Paapanasam, Budalur were stopped in experimental basis but now it's a regular stoppage.
Also the train doesn't needs to be stopped in Arumuganeri since its just located within 2kms from Kayalpattinam which have a stoppage.
Aduthurai,
...
more...
Paapanasam and Budalur stations have very few people users since the train crossing these station at almost late night.
If these 4 stoppages (Aduthurai, Paapanasam, Budalur and Arumuganeri) were Skipped the train cab able to reduce the travel time to 13hr or less.
The train has become more demanded these days so the unwanted stops should be skipped and the concern should be noted.
