Useful Agree
The SWR zone sides which I've travelled, I'll tell the possibilities of these points....
Point no. 9 - That looks almost close to impossible due to Ghats section...
Point no. 13 - Will work out provided IR has occupied land acquisition for expansion
Point no. 23 - Till Kuppam (AP) will work provided same reason as Point no. 13 but post Kuppam likely doubtful
...
more...
due to mountain section where MPS is little low....
Point no. 27 - Bengaluru - Kengeri is very unlikely due to cramped section between SBC-Krishnadevaraya Halt and Nayandahalli-Kengeri due to Jnanabharathi (H) very close to expressway and metro... post KGI, possible but might be tight due to many curves....
Other points, I've never traveled in those sections and so can't comment on those sections... other SWR RFans might be able to add points to the above mentioned...ЁЯСНЁЯСН

For point no. 25, by doing so, there's a chance that they might bring more trains in the future, but that looks like a dream for me.... ЁЯдФЁЯСН

Re# 6091963-2              
See there are two ways of looking at this news... one way from their angle is that they're environmentalists and u know abt them... saving Earth in many ways by planting many trees for the benefit of our own Mother Earth.... looking at the other way from our angle... we need to sacrifice cutting down trees for the benefit of traffic reduction, thereby having clearance for M/E and above type of trains for seamless travel, provided they have acres of places for planting trees like how Namma Metro r doing for construction of metros but planting at different areas..... so I can't really comment/debate on this....ЁЯдФЁЯСН

Re# 6091963-4              
One section is going on "ok" progress... i.e. BNC-WFD section wherein, they're installing high OHEs in selected areas, like btw BNC and BNCE and post BNCE in some areas.... and btw BNC and BNCE, I'd say half distance has been completed with track and high OHE installation.... remaining is going on but a little slow pace.... post BNCE, land alignment is going on with few sections of pillars getting installed and getting ready to change from single pillars to the high OHE pillars (probably they might have a block for that and divert some trains via SMVT YPR and head towards SBC).... so this is the update as of now..... BangaloreMail sir and SWRailway sir, pls do correct me incase I made a mistake in the update....ЁЯСНЁЯСНЁЯСН

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake.
