Presently the train is underrated and less used.

Sharing the slot with other Rajdhani's or Durontos may have some issue but this can be extended till NZM from TVC and changed as Rajdhani via PER.

days Rajdhani from TVC to NZM 3 days via MAO, 2 days Via MDU, TPJ, MS, BZA ( New Train) & 2 days Via CBE, KPD, PER, BZA ( 22208/07).

This serves faster access to the National Capital from the southern districts of Tamil Nadu and Kerala.

The present slot from TVC of 22208 shall be kept as it is and its MPS between PGT and MAS shall be increased so that the running time reduced by allocating a time at MS & PER 9:00 / 9:15 then @ BZA 15:00 / 15: 05, WL @ 17:49 / 17:50, @ BPQ 20:55 / 21:00, @ NGP 23:50 / 23:55, @ BPL 05:10 / 05:20, @ JHS 08:35 / 08:40, @ AGC 10:45 / 10:50 reaching NZM by 13:25.

From TVC via CBE, ED, PER on SUN and WED, Via MDU, TPJ, MS on MON & SAT. ( MDU route halts @ - NJT, TEN, MDU, TPJ, MS)

On return starting from NZM @ 11:30 ( on MON & SAT Via PER, THU & FRI via MS) PER / MS @ 16:15 / 16: 25 reaching TVC by 6:15 am.

The speed of the train in MAS - CBE Section on the up journey is great, although It drags to cover the distance between ERN - TVC due to speed restriction, something can be made to increase the MPS in this are.

On Down journey the travelling time between CBE - MAS takes longer than the other SF trains, SR can do something to increase the MPS and Average Speed of the train as this train has high patronage.

Time Change is really a great move, but slow down 25 mins again is not a good one, now the running time will be increased from 14 hr 35 mins to 15 hour where TVC Shalimar SF Express, Ananthapuri Express travels in 16 hrs followed by 12698 in 16hrs and 05 mins.
Dynamic Faring and Rajdhani typing along with old ICF coaches, ppl used to travel because of speed but now the train is slowed down. Kudos this happens only in Southern Railway that too MAS - TVC Division.
Well Done Bravo.
