{{main|Chamundeshwari Temple}}<br />
This train traces its name to mythology. [[Chamundi|Chamundeshwari]] is an incarnation of [[Adi Parashakti]] who destroyed the demon [[Mahishasura]]. At the spot believed to be the place where Chamundeshwari killed Mahishasura, a temple was constructed there, currently located in [[Chamundi Hills]] in Mysuru. The [[Maharaja of Mysore]] and the Royal family of Mysore worshipped Chamundeshwari as their patron deity. The temple is believed to be a [[Shakti Peetha]] as the hair of Goddess [[Sati (goddess)|Sati]] fell there<br />
