The Kovai (Coimbatore) - Mettupalayam special trains that usually runs in the month of June and July has now been extended till August 31st. The trains will run on all days except Sundays, since the service was to cater to the demand of commuters, traders and office goers and students, between these stations.
The Southern Railways have also announced that due to the work of commissioning of double line between Coimbatore North and Irugur stations, there would be a change in the pattern of train services on August 12, 15, 16, 18 and 19.
