People/ MLA/ our 37 MPs/ STATE / CENTRAL Ministers may demand for additional possible stoppages and get success.
Some Expresses are stopped for 20 to30 minutes for crossing daily without official Commercial stoppages,but regular season ticket holders use that stoppages .One example.16339 Mumbai CST- Nagercoil Expresses ( 4 days per week ) stopped in Thirupparankundram Municipality ( Murugan Temple) and Thirumangalam Municipality ( sub-urban to Madurai) regularly 20 TO 30 minutes for crossing for 2 Chennai bound trains regularly in each station.In that crossing stoppage time some season ticket travellers go to nearby hotel and get parcel and catch train at Thirupparangundram station.At-least sanction one minute official Commercial Stoppages for this trains.This kind of regular SF/Expresses stoppages may be provided official commercial Stoppages.
All the small station should have direct access to the state HQs Chennai by at-least one passenger trains as done by the SWR and SCR.
SWR operates passenger train with less fares for poor people in all the routes and from all the stations in Karnataka to Bangalore by one passenger train for poor people( HUBLI-BANGALORE sector of 470 km distance have 3 up and down passenger services).
Similarly SCR operates passenger trains from all the stations in the SEEMANDRA and Telengana to Hyderabad HQs.
But SR only does not operated passenger services from Chennai to all the stations in Tamilnadu.Even it does not operate passenger trains from Tiruvananthapuram to all the stations in Kerala state.
Now SR withdraws most of the essential stops in both Tamilnadu and Kerala.
So i demand more long distance passenger trains for poor from Chennai.

1) Chennai Central- Park station Ground level via canal providing Road Over Bridges in front of the Central station Terminal.

5) Tanjavore-Ariyalur-Perambalur -Attur
6) Kovilpatti-Sankarankoil ..... etc.

All lines in SR have to be electrified for seamless operation.
9) SUB-URBAN SERVICES NEEDED FOR CITIES
1) Madurai 2) Trichy,3) Coimbatore 4) Salem,5)Vellore 6) Tirunelveli
10) CHENNAI METRO EXPANSION
1) Southern side upto Chengalpattu 2) WESTERN side upto Thiruvallur 3) Northern side upto Gummidipoondi
