The special Tatkal overnight super-fast train 06525/06526 Belagavi to KSR Bengaluru, inaugural special will be flagged off at 18.00 hours on 29-6-2019. The inaugural special will run with open timings.
The said train has been scheduled for only a month as per the note issued by SWR.
It will have stoppages at Dharwad, Hubballi, Hubballi South, Davangere, Arsikere, Tumkur, Yesvantpur, KSR Bengaluru.
A passenger would have to dole out more for a Tatkal service ticket as the rates for these are higher than the normal fare by anything in the range of Rs 175 and Rs 400.
However, while tickets may only be booked online for the Premium trains, Tatkal Special tickets will be available both at railway ticket counters and online.
For a Tatkal Special train, advance reservation period is of a minimum 10 days and maximum 60 days.
Suresh Angadi MoS Railways is likely to flag off the train.

Ideal name for this Special Train should be:
SangolliChenamma Express
I don’t see the train in the booking section on IRCTC App.

What about the train facilities in Ganesh festivals .. when it’s required in high demands, and every time there would be a shortage of booking facilities. ?
Should be in season ,like oct April and May
Just now launching it does not make much sense as if it goes vacant , railways will say it’s loss making
Alternatively they can introduce a train from Bangalore to Pune same time via Hubli or Belgaum
Like Bangalore depart 9 pm and bgm 7 am and Pune by 2 pm
Depart Pune by 3 pm Belgaum 9 pm and Bangalore 7 am
If need be merge and do a link express
This train should be run as a “SUPERFAST EXPRESS” with NORMAL fares plus 20+ coach rake & be regularized immediately & not be made to run just for a month.
MOSR Angadi is being hoodwinked by SWR officials. This should be highlighted to MOSR at the inauguration day itself.
SF TRAIN BETWEEN BGM – BLR IS GIFT FOR BELGAVI AND WE ALL REQUEST TO HONERBLE RLY MOS SHRI.ANGADI SIR KINDLY CONSIDER DIRECT TRAIN TOWARDS HORWH AND CHENNAI WHICH WILL BE BENEFITS MORE THAN LAC PEOPLE’S.
It is good initiative by MoS Suresh Anna Angadi Ji Let us hope it will continue even after one month
It should made Bangalore to Mumbai via Hubli belgaum to run as superfast express and with 20+ coaches with same train to release passenger load from Udyan Express and 11014 LTT Express.
It is good initiative from Suresh sir but later please make this train from Bangalore to Mumbai with Thane halt as well as with superfast express category via Hubli Belgaum Miraj with 20+ coaches to release the passenger load of chalukya express, Udyan express and 11014 LTT Express.
