This train can be extended to Pathankot which is 109 km from Amritsar. This will ease pressure on Amritsar station which has many trains to maintain and train timings are perfect for extension. Pathankot station has terminal facilities too.
Train can start from Amritsar after loco reversal at 19:30 reach Batala at 20:30, reach Gurdaspur at 21:00 and reach pathankot at 21:45.
In return jorney it can start at 06:00 from Pathankot reach Gurdaspur at 06:30, reach Batala at 07:00 and then reach Amritsar at 08:00 and from there after loco reversal starts...
more... at its normal time of 08:15.
In the night at Pathankot it wil have 8 hours 15 minutes for maintenance..
Also Pathankot doesnot have a daily train to Mumbai. So that thisng will be fulfilled too.
