(...contd...)

##In fact, there is 6350 which departs from Mangalore at 4.15 hrs, but this means you have to forego your sleep and also miss a part of the scenic route, particular, the sea adjacent to the tracks neasr Bykal Railway Station.

vsp27759 thank you for replying with the details,
But I KNOW the train is there. I checked it on train enquire.
I am saying even THOUGH THE TRAIN EXISTS(ITS RUNNING) it does not show up on cleartrip.com.
I was searching for 3ac.

It is now showing on irctc.co.in.

I know the train is running and am shocked that it is running from a few months because I had searched for it long time back and was always searching google for news on this day train(which was long overdue).

You mean there is no sleeper class in the day train from YPR to Mangalore??
That is strange. I had checked for sleeper class in january and got REGRET/WL 1
I was wondering how come that could be the status.
Well now that explains it.

Wonder why they did not keep a sleeper class, maybe they want the poor people to go by bus.
The sleeper class is cheaper than bus.

Dear Qwan,
I am surprised that you are based in Mlore and not aware of the introduction of this train......given that there was so much hoo haa/ noise/ jubilation over the introduction of this train. This train was introduced on Aug 29.Some details can be found here.http://www.hindu.com/2009/08/29/stor...2954460500.htm

Dear VSP sir,
The composition of this train seems to be changing as days go by. There are both 2S and SL available at different parts of time!

Dear c195ikon,

By any chance, are you an IRFCian?

Dear VSP,

No sir, I am not a IRFCian - though in recent times I have been visiting it quite often! I have always been curious to know more about the IR system and have always been wonderstruck at the way it functions. I think Indiamike and IRFCA are 2 humungously simple and comfortable way to learn more. The quest for knowledge is successfully met by these two 'fountains' and contributors like yourselves and other senior members. Many thanks
