Bengaluru: The cancellation of a dedicated overnight train between Bengaluru and Hubballi has riled passengers.
The South Western Railway (SWR) cited “poor occupancy” for the cancellation of train numbers 07340/07339 KSR Bengaluru-SSS Hubballi-KSR Bengaluru Superfast Express.
The train was cancelled from KSR Bengaluru beginning November 20 and from SSS Hubballi beginning November 21.
Passengers dispute the “poor occupancy” claim, saying the train was running at near capacity. They want the railways to make the occupancy details public and resume the train forthwith.
