  • Departure days/times may sometimes shift due to rescheduling; always confirm closer to travel date.

✅ Travel Advice

  • Book early via IRCTC or PRS, particularly if you need AC or Sleeper class, since quotas are limited.
  • Check NTES or IRCTC Live Running Status on journey day to monitor updates or delays.
  • Consider regular options if timing is critical:
    • Uttarakhand Sampark Kranti Express (15035/15036): runs 5 days a week from Delhi splitting for Kathgodam—more reliable and frequent.
      ([turn0search19])
    • Bagh Express (13019/13020): daily through Howrah–Kathgodam with catering and higher priority.
