I was so excited when i first saw this train, I was so excited that i almost fell on the tracks. This is also the first time I am taking video of RPM WAP7 30319.
The first ever trial run of the Chennai-Bangalore Double Decker express cruises past Baiyyappanahalli[BYPL] with Royapuram[RPM] WAP7 30319 taking the lead, thanks to the LP who was kind enough to honk, even if it was in Installments. Ironically its elder brother Lallaguda[LGD] WAP7 30318 went with the Brindavan express just about an hour before this train.
The rake consisted of 11DD coaches with 2EOGs. 
When the commercial run commences this train will run ahead of the Brindavan express, 
22625 MAS-SBC DD will depart Chennai[MAS] at 07:25 and arrive Bangalore[SBC] at 13:30
22626 SBC-MAS DD will depart Bangalore[SBC] at 14:40 and arrive Chennai[SBC] at 20:45

Both 22625 and 22626 will cover the 362km run between MAS and SBC in 6:05hrs at an avg of 59.5kmph
The train will have halts at:

Arakkonam Jn.[AJJ] - 2mins

Katpadi Jn.[KPD] - 2mins

Ambur[AB] - 2mins

Jolarpettai Jn.[JTJ] - 2mins

Bangarpet[BWT] - 2mins
