SWR fulfils demand of speedy connectivity pending from 13 years

Mangaluru, Feb 11 (UNI) The much demand for a superfast dedicated train between Bengaluru and Karwar will become reality after resumption of passenger train services between the mainland and the coast via Sakleshpur-Subrahmanya Road Ghat section.
The South Western Railway (SWR) announced introduction of a new train --Yeshwantpur-Vasco da Gama-Yeshwantpur daily special train on special fare via Subrahmanya Road, Padil, Surathkal and Karwar, bypassing Mangaluru. A few days ago, SWR had proposed to bifurcate the existing combined train, Bengaluru-Kannur/Karwar overnight express that met with stiff resistance from coastal people.
While residents of Mangaluru were not prepared to part with its services, those in the rest of the coast too did not want bifurcation as it did not reduce journey hours.
