LTT/Lokmanya Tilak Terminus -- TVC/Thiruvananthapuram Central (Trivandrum)

The 16345/16346 Netravati Express is a daily express train connecting capital cities of Kerala and Maharashtra. It operates between Thiruvananthapuram Central and Lokmanya Tilak Terminus. The train runs on the Konkan railway.
Initially the train was plied between Mumbai to Mangalore/Kochi as link via the inland Pune, Gulbarga, Krishnarajapuram, Palakkad route parting at Shornur Junction. Trains on the old route used to take 48 hours to reach Mangalore from Mumbai. After the Konkan Railway line was operational in 1998, the route has been changed via the Konkan Railway and the Mangaluru-Mumbai running time was reduced drastically to 16 hours. The link express was made a single train till Kochi and further extended till Thiruvananthapuram (which is the capital city of Kerala) from 10 February 2001.
Mangaluru city is situated at the banks of the Netravati River. Since this trains terminating point was Mangaluru back then, the name of the train was set as Netravati Express.
A WDP-4D ,belonging to Golden Rock,or a WDM-3D of Erode Shed hauls the train from Lokmanya Tilak Terminus to Mangaluru Junction after which an Erode based WAP-4 hauls the train for the remainder of its journey.
