first from trichy to madurai and later from madurai to tirunelveli, thats my idea

is this a good scenic route for train trevelling? or should it be better to travel this by taxi?

Depends on what you mean by "scenic." Southern Tamil Nadu is eerily flat. In some parts, you can view a 360 degree horizon, which is not easy to do on land. The area has a primordial feel to it--palm trees and scrub brush. I half expect to see a grazing brontosaurus.

From Madurai to Tinnyveli is a pleasant enough trip, little roadside Tamil towns, some outcrops of rock that turn into hills, breaking the flatness. I like the area. I'm just not sure if most people will find it sufficiently visually animated.

I've only done Madurai-Trichy at night.
