History


In the beginning the train used to run between Bombay Victoria Terminus (station code VT) [now Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus Mumbai, (station code CSMT)] and Ayodhya (station code AY) but later on the starting station was shifted from Mumbai CSMT to Lokmanya Tilak Terminus Kurla (station code LTT) from where it currently runs.

Saket Express is one of the two trains that connect Ayodhya to Mumbai via Sultanpur Junction and Pratapgarh Junction, the other being the Ayodhya Superfast Express, which runs once a week via Shahganj Junction and Jaunpur Junction.
