‘History will change when some people come’ – is a hit dialogue among Malayalis. One such change came in the travel habits of Kerala when the Vandebharat Express arrived. Vandebharat said that if he left Thiruvananthapuram in the evening, instead of waiting for the whole night, he could go to his house in Kasarakh and sleep at night. Malayali heard it. During the rush, Vandebharat was welcomed with open arms as he stood by their rush. Just as the first Vande Bharat started running as the pride of Kerala, the second Vande Bharat also arrived. When the journeys are facilitated, there is a situation where even tickets are not available from some stations. Or if you want tickets, you have to book days in advance. When Vandebharat became a hit, it can be said that Malayalees became more busy.
Tirur conquered Vandebharat with a ticket
Vandebharat train was not allowed to stop at Tirur in the first phase which led to huge protests. However, the second Vande Bharat came with a stop at Tirur. A grand welcome was given to Vandebharat by the people of Tirur. 44 people landed in Tirur from Thiruvananthapuram on the first journey of the second Vande Bharat. Those going to Tirur boarded the Vandebharat from Thiruvananthapuram, Ernakulam and Kollam. Moreover, ten people from Tirur boarded the Vandebharat for Kozhikode, Kannur and Kasaragod. On the first day, the people of Tirur gave a good sign that allowing a stop for Vandebharat at Tirur would not cause any loss to the railways.
Second Vandebharat for Kalakan, Malayalees made the journey difficult
The first day’s journey of the second Vande Bharat (20631) started with 161.5 per cent occupancy. It is in chair car category and executive class category. A total of 856 people booked tickets. Out of this, 530 people traveled. Most of the travelers were from Thiruvananthapuram to Ernakulam.
There is no ticket to Tirur
Tirur, which got a stop when the second Vande Bharat came, is also smart in booking tickets. Tickets from Thiruvananthapuram to Tirur and from Tirur to Thiruvananthapuram are on the waiting list till 2nd October. Also, tickets are not available from Tirur to Kasaragod. In any case, the ticket booking rates indicate that the stop at Tirur will not cause any loss to the railways.

The third Vande Bharat has reached the state
The third Vande Bharat has arrived after the second Vande Bharat started its successful service in the state. However, this Vande Bharat, which reached Kochuveli, did not come to start the third service. Thiruvananthapuram – Kasaragod via Alappuzha will stand as a substitute during the repairs of the 2nd Vandebharat Express. Vande Bharat, which came third, is blue and white. Vandebharat via Alappuzha is currently orange and grey. Meanwhile, Train, which came third, has only eight coaches. However, the first Vandebharat via Kottayam has 16 compartments.
Repair work of Vandebharat only in Kochuveli
At present, the repair work of Vandebharat trains will be done at the yard in Kochuveli, Thiruvananthapuram. The journey of Vandebharat Express via Kottayam terminates at Thiruvananthapuram. This Vandebharat will get enough time to run the service from Thiruvananthapuram to Kochuveli. But if the Vandebharat via Alappuzha reaches Thiruvananthapuram at 3.05 in the evening, it should depart for Kasaragod at 4.05. No time for repairs or service. Therefore, the third Vandebharath has been allotted to Thiruvananthapuram division to ensure service every day, said railway officials.
