Hi Everyone
The 12479 / 12480 Suryanagri Express is a Superfast train running between the Indian cities of Jodhpur and Bandra Terminus, Mumbai. It initially plied between Jodhpur and Ahmedabad as the 4845/46 Suryanagri Express. In the 2002/03 railway budget its operation was extended to Bandra Terminus, Mumbai for four days a week. Later it became a daily train between Jodhpur and Bandra Terminus and was renumbered to 12479/12480.
12479 Jodhpur–Bandra Terminus Suryanagri Express covers a distance of 936.8 kilometers in 16 hours 50 mins (55.54 km/hr) and in 17 hours 00 mins as the 12480 Bandra Terminus–Jodhpur Suryanagri Express (55.00 km/hr).
As the average speed of the train is more than 55 km/h (34 mph), the fare includes a Superfast surcharge.
The 12479/12480 Suryanagri Express runs from Jodhpur Junction via Luni Junction, Marwar Junction, Rani, Falna, Jawai Bandh, Pindwara, Abu Road, Palanpur, Mahesana, Ahmedabad Junction, Vadodara, Surat, Borivali to Bandra Terminus.
Prior to the Western Railway switching to the AC traction, the 12479/12480 Suryanagri Express would be hauled by a WCAM-1 or WCAM-2/2P engine of Valsad shed from Bandra Terminus up to Ahmedabad Junction after which it would get a WDP-4 from the Bhagat Ki Kothi shed until Jodhpur.
Since the Western Railway switched over to AC traction in February 2012, the 12479/12480 Suryanagri Express is now hauled by a WAP-5 / WAP-4E / WAP-7 from the Vadodara shed until Ahmedabad Junction after which a WDP-4 / WDP-4B / WDP-4D from the Bhagat Ki Kothi shed takes over and hauls the train to Jodhpur.
