Minister of State for Railways K.H. Muniyappa said here on Friday that it will take at least six months for the tri-weekly Mangalore-Yeshwanthpur day train to be operated ever day. This is because the Railways will have to lay four more railway tracks at Siribagilu station between Sakleshpur and Mangalore for stationing of trains there.
Addressing presspersons, the Minister said that as goods trains plied between Mangalore and Sakleshpur, provision had to be made for stationing them at Siribagilu on the Shiradi Ghat section in case of an emergency or whenever needed. Laying of tracks at the station would take at least six months. The day train could be operated on a daily basis only later.
