This train could be extended to Kannur with existing timings in the existing CLT - TVC - CLT route. This can be made possible with a rake sharing arrangement similar to the one of 16305/16308/16306/16307 done at Kannur. (12076 arrives CAN afternoon - returns as 12081 next day morning. 12082 arrives CAN midnight - returns as 12075 next day noon). Maintenance can still be done at TVC itslef. If this arrangement is made, 12081/82 can be made daily thereby connecting north Kerala better to state capital.

With the updation of timings of 16159 Egmore-Manglore Exp, Venad can be speeded so that it reaches Shornur by 12.30 therby providing a connection to 16159. This will boost the patronage of both trains.
