A major update has been announced for passengers travelling on the Dr Ambedkar Nagar–Prayagraj Express. North Central Railway has announced a temporary route change for the Dr Ambedkar Nagar–Prayagraj Express.

The route has been changed due to ongoing remodelling work at Lalitpur Railway Station. This work is being carried out to improve the station, while train services continue to operate without major disruptions.

The route diversion will remain in effect only for the announced dates. Passengers travelling on the affected trains can check the latest train timings and running status before starting their journey here.

Prayagraj–Dr Ambedkar Nagar Express: Diverted route 

The Prayagraj Junction–Dr Ambedkar Nagar Express (Train No. 14115) will run on a diverted route from July 17 to July 21, 2026.

Normally, the train travels via Prayagraj Junction – Satna – Bina – Lalitpur – Veena. During the diversion period, it will operate via Prayagraj Junction – Satna – Katni Murwara – Damoh – Veena instead of its regular route.
