Train Services Affected by Bengaluru Station Upgrades
Some train services in India are affected because of work being done at the SMV Bengaluru Railway Station.
The work is to make the station better by adding new signals.
Because of this, some trains are partially cancelled, diverted to different stations, or have changed starting points.
For example, the Tata Nagar to SMV Bengaluru express will not go to SMV Bengaluru but will instead go to Sri Satya Sai Prashanthi Nilayam.
The Howrah to SMV Bengaluru SF express will also be partially cancelled.
These changes are happening on January 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Non-interlocking (NI) working programme at SMV Bengaluru Railway Station affects multiple train services.
Tata Nagar - SMV Bengaluru express (12889) diverted to Sri Satya Sai Prashanthi Nilayam and additional stoppage at Yelahanka Junction.
Howrah - SMV Bengaluru SF express (12863) partially cancelled between Krishnarajapuram - SMV Bengaluru.
SMV Bengaluru - Howrah SF express (12864) starts from Bengaluru City Junction instead of SMV Bengaluru.
Multiple other trains, including Duronto and Jasidih expresses, have partial cancellations or changed starting points.
