Indian Railways has changed the routes of two express passenger trains connecting West Bengal’s Howrah with Jodhpur and Bikaner stations of Rajasthan. The Railways has changed the routes of the Howrah-Bikaner and Howrah-Jodhpur express trains due to ongoing work on tracks along the route.
As per the new route plan, these trains will not pass through Prayagraj, Fatehpur, Kanpur Central, Etawah, Tundla and Agra Fort stations in Uttar Pradesh.
