CHANGE IN PATTERN OF TRAIN SERVICES DUE TO DOUBLING WORK IN KAYANKULAM – MAVELIKARA SECTION


o execute the work connected with the doubling of the Kayankulam-Mavelikara section (7.89 Kms.), the Construction organization of Southern Railway has undertaken Track, Signalling and Electrical works for 33 days commencing from 07th Feburuary, 2011 to 11th March, 2011. The first phase of the above works is in progress .As Kayankulam is a Junction point the magnitude of the work involved is very heavy.

Once commissioned, this double line will result in improved punctuality due to fewer stoppages for crossings and better speed.Southern Railway is attempting to commission this double line with least disturbance to the traveling public.However, due to large number of trains running on this section, trains services would have to be reorganized from 22.02.2011 to 11.03.2011.The train wise details and the schedule during this period are listed below for the information of passengers.

We request passengers to bear with the inconvenience and solicit their cooperation during this period.

1. (a) The following trains will be diverted via Ernakulam Town - Kottayam - Kayankulam Section during the dates mentioned with stoppages at Kottayam, Changanasseri, Tiruvalla & Chengannur
