Just travelled in this train yesterday from KSR Bengaluru to Erode. After conversion to LHB rake this train tears up the tracks to reach its next stations before time. Food availability is really awesome in this train. It took just 1hr from Tirupattur to Salem. Then it took 45min from Salem to Cauvery where our train entered the main line of Cauvery at around 10pm. In the right side to us was standing the Mettur Dam-Erode Passenger. We expected that our train will overtake that small passenger train(Mettur Dam-Erode Passenger{ENG(GOC-WDP4D)-UR-UR-SLR-UR-UR}. To a great shock the passenger train overtook us at Cauvery and we were waited to stand at Cauvery for about half an hour. It was almost 10:30pm then we had Xing with 12625(Thiruvananthapuram Central-New Delhi)Kerala Superfast Express.Our train departed after crossing with 12625. We reached Erode by 10:40pm.

please wait...Translate to EnglishYo, I rode that train from KSR Bengaluru to Erode yesterday. Since they switched to LHB, that train is mad fast. It gets to the next station before schedule. Food on the train is banging. We got from Tirupattur to Salem in an hour and from Salem to Cauvery in 45 minutes. At Cauvery, we caught up to the Mettur Dam-Erode Passenger on our right, but to our surprise, that little train ended up passing us! We had to sit there for half an hour. We finally got moving again after the Kerala Superfast Express 12625 passed by at around 10:30pm. We got to Erode at 10:40pm. If you want to grab some unreserved seats on that train at KSR Bengaluru station, get there by 2pm and you should be good to go.
