I couldn’t find any official notice or media report confirming that Train No. 12688 Dehradun–Madurai Superfast Express is scheduled for diversion on 9 October 2025.
Here’s what turned up:
What I Did Find (Historical Reference)
- A news item from 2025 reports a single-day diversion on 9 October 2025, caused by power and traffic block plus non-interlocking work at Asaoti Station (Northern Railway division). The train was rerouted via Meerut City, Khurja, Mitawal, and Agra Cantt on that date.
What I Did Not Find for 2025
- No announcements, press releases, or credible sources indicate that the train is to be diverted on 9 October 2025.
- The information available on Indian Rail Info, Wikipedia, or official SCR/Northern Railway platforms offers no such mention for 2025—even sections labeled “Train News History” contain no relevant entries for that date.

If you’ve heard otherwise, it could be a misunderstanding—perhaps about block work or schedule changes for another service. Let me know if you’d like me to keep an eye out and check back closer to the date—or help you explore alternative arrangements on that route.
