Festive Relief! New Special Trains for Gorakhpur, Jaipur & Danapur
Indian Railways introduces Bandra-Gorakhpur and Bhagalpur-Jaipur special trains and extends the Sogaria-Danapur service for the festive season.

To manage the massive surge in passenger traffic during the busy festive season, Indian Railways has announced several new train services. These measures are designed to provide much-needed relief to travelers who are planning to visit their homes or travel for holidays.
New One-Way Special Train Services
The railway administration has introduced two new one-way special trains to help tackle the heavy rush on major routes. These services are specifically aimed at easing the journey for passengers moving between key cities:
- Bandra-Gorakhpur Special: This service will assist commuters traveling towards Uttar Pradesh.
- Bhagalpur-Jaipur Special: This one-way service will cater to passengers heading towards Rajasthan.
Extension of Sogaria-Danapur Puja Special
In addition to the new one-way services, the railways have also extended the duration of an existing popular service. The Sogaria-Danapur weekly Puja special train, which was previously scheduled for a shorter period, will now continue its operations until December.
This extension is a significant move to support travelers during the peak holiday months, ensuring that seats are available for those traveling between Rajasthan and Bihar.
Relief for Multiple States
The introduction of these special trains and the extension of existing services are strategically aimed at providing relief to passengers traveling across several states, including:
- Uttar Pradesh
- Bihar
- Rajasthan
By increasing the frequency and availability of these special services, the Indian Railways aims to make festive travel smoother and more organized for millions of passengers across the country.
