1. Let a few
of the CHENNAI EGMORE bound trains from south ply up north to Vijayawada /
Guntur / or west to THIRUNINDRAVUR /
ARAKONAM. . Like wise few CHENNAI CENTRAL bound trains via AVADI may proceed up
to Perambur as usual then proceed either north to Vijayawada / Guntur / or south to
Tambaram / Chinglepet 2.BY
skipping CHENNAI CENTRAL Let CHENNAI CENTRAL TERMINUS be like BOMBAY CHRUCHGATE
Trains from SOUTH towards WEST via Bangalore need not touch inner cities :
instead they may proceed NORTH via Krishna raja puram. Like wise MUMBAI CST,
MUMBAI CENTRAL, DADAR,THANE can be skipped by running the trains via Kalyan and
Vapi towards Gujarat / Rajasthan / New Delhi and vice versa. People from the
west and the north can get down at VAPI to board the western railway MEMUs or
proceed up to KALYAN and hop in to the central railway 3.What are the benefits ? More space for
local trains and less crowd at inner city railway stations. Imagine the freedom
to operate numerous MEMU trains IN THE STRESSED MUMBAI RAILWAY SUBURBAN
LINES.4.Station names can be prefixed with ADVERTISER's names / brands etc.5.
Permit access to both sides of railway junctions / stations. example Erode /
Salem railway junctions. 8.Improve the connectivity to railway junctions by
permitting minibuses / share autos / call taxies. 9.Create passenger amenities
on both sides of railway junctions / stations. ATMs / ticket vending machines /
Eateries / super markets / Hospitals / LODGES . 10.RUN THE TRAINS LONGER : for example, .ORIGINATE THE ERODE based
PASSENGER TRAINS at SALEM / KARUR and THE SALEM / KARUR based PASSENGER TRAINS
at ERODE . For example , two passenger trains commence their daily journey from
ERODE towards Coimbatore, by 7.00 am and 7.45 am and ends up by 7.00pm and
8.30pm respectively. Start them (and ofcourse terminate them ) at SALEM / KARUR
: we can have about 120 kms EXTRA. Like wise extend ERODE - TRICHY train to Tanjore or even better KARAIKAL.11.RUN THEM STRAIGHTER
