Madras-Mangalore abstract from 1935 Bradshaw. Blue Mountain Exp was 45 from MAS to MTP and 50 from MTP to MAS. Strange that the trains did not have adjacent numbers! No. 13/14 MAS-MAQ Malabar Exp was the forerunner of present Mangalore Mail. Comparing the condition of tracks, signalling of 1931 and today, there has not been a drastic increase in speed for these trains, especially between CBE and MAS. etc Thanks to Chris Pieterski (Jimmy Jose)
