ℹ️ Additional Notes
- These “special fare” Ganpati trains are typically seasonal and run during Ganesh Chaturthi season (late August / early September), based on Konkan Railway and Western Railway releases
- Information from August 2025 CR release confirms these timings. If you’re planning travel in 2025, the same pattern is expected, but confirmation once the official schedule is released nearer the festival is recommended
- Websites like TravelKhana, IndiaRailInfo, and MakeMyTrip also list these trains, but note discrepancies exist in distance and duration estimates — e.g. 975 km vs. 789 km, and one shows slightly shorter travel times
✅ What you should do next:
- Check IRCTC, NTES, or Konkan Railway’s official website closer to Ganesh Chaturthi season for 2025 to confirm exact dates and availability.
- Book early, as these special trains fill up quickly.
- Keep in mind that schedule and coach composition may change year to year.
