Passengers travelling through Faridabad railway station over the next several weeks should check their train and platform details before starting their journey. Redevelopment work at the station will temporarily affect 47 train services, according to separate advisories issued by Northern Railway and Southern Railway.
Of these, four trains will temporarily skip their scheduled stop at Faridabad, while 43 trains will operate from different platforms at the station. The changes begin from August 30, 2026, depending on the train, and some platform changes will remain in place until October 15, 2026.
The four trains skipping Faridabad are affected due to a power or traffic block connected with redevelopment work, according to the Southern Railway advisory.
Which 4 trains will not stop at Faridabad?
Southern Railway said in an August 27 post on X that four trains would temporarily skip Faridabad between August 30 and October 14. Passengers using these services should note that the trains themselves have not been cancelled; only their Faridabad stoppage is being skipped for the specified period.

What should Faridabad passengers do?
Passengers boarding or getting off at Faridabad should check their train’s platform before reaching the platform, particularly during the redevelopment period.
The Northern Railway advisory asks passengers seeking detailed timetables, en-route information and train composition details to use the RailMadad helpline 139, Indian Railways enquiry services or the NTES app.
The platform changes do not mean these 43 trains are cancelled or skipping Faridabad. They are scheduled to stop at Faridabad but will use a different platform during the specified period. The four trains listed separately by Southern Railway, however, will not stop at Faridabad during their respective affected dates.
