Your people are thinking about Hubli Dharwad ,but what about Belgaum people ?
Is not inconvenient for Belgaum people where Rani chennamma reaches Belgaum after 8-30 or 9-00
As after Dharwad some big town is Khanapur which is taluka head quarters only Rani chennamma is the only train to go to Bangalore
