The Antyodaya unreserved train service was a boon to the people of the southern district. Antyodaya Express train runs from Chennai Tambaram to Nagercoil at 11 pm daily. Notably, this is the only daily Antiyothaya train in the country. With 15 coaches, this train is operated on a fully booked basis for unreserved passengers. The train departs at 11 pm and reaches Nagercoil at 12.50 the next day.
Antyodaya Express train used to run from Tambaram to Villupuram will reach Trichy via Kumbakonam, and Thanjavur, and from there it will reach Nagercoil via Dindigul and Madurai. Passengers traveling to south districts such as Chengalpattu, Villupuram, Mayiladuthurai, Kumbakonam, Thanjavur, Trichy, Dindigul, Madurai, Virudhunagar, Kovilpatti, and Tirunelveli have been largely benefitting of this train service.
