Kannur ∙ Mangaluru-Goa Vandebharat, which is running at a loss, will definitely be profitable if expanded to Kannur or Kozhikode. Since there are only a few trains running between Kozhikode and Mangalore, passengers will welcome them with open arms. Another advantage is that the service can be expanded without much planning or maintenance effort. Vandebharat operates six days a week except Thursdays on the Mangaluru-Goa route. Vandebharat to Goa departs from Mangaluru at 8.30 am. The journey to Goa takes four and a half hours.
If it departs from Kozhikode at 5.30 am or from Kannur at 6.30 am, the service can be operated without changing the current schedule. Even if it is a little earlier, there will be no shortage of passengers from Kozhikode. You can use the train from Kozhikode, Kannur and Kasaragod districts to hospitals and educational institutions in Mangaluru and for pilgrims to Mookambika Temple. Tourists are also relieved. From Kozhikode, Vandebharat can reach Goa in seven and a half hours. Vandebharat trains in Kerala take eight hours to reach from Kasaragod to Thiruvananthapuram.
The return journey leaves Goa at 6:10 pm and reaches Mangaluru at 10:45 pm. If the departure is postponed to 2:15 pm, it will reach Mangaluru at 6:45 pm, Kannur at 8:45 pm and Kozhikode at 9:45 pm. If the train is extended to Kannur, it will not be difficult to stop at the station. In case of an agreement to extend the Kannur-Bengaluru Express (16511) to Kozhikode, the route on which this train currently stops can be used for Vandebharat.
