Virudhunagar-Tirunelveli electric traction to be commissioned by June 2014


Travelling by train from Chennai to Kanyakumari along the southern trunk route, through Tiruchi and Madurai, is set to be quicker with Southern Railway planning to commission the electrified Virudhunagar- Tirunelveli segment by June 2014

While electrification of the broad gauge line had extended from the Chennai side to Madurai and from the Kanyakumari end to Tirunelveli, the roughly 110-km Virudhunagar-Tirunelveli segment had been the missing link to providing seamless operation of trains with electric traction from Chennai and Kanyakumari
