I just want to know that when and why has this train no 2277/2278 been changed from a "DURONTO" train to just another Express train of "SUPERFAST" Category ??

Yes, the track between Amritsar and Saharanpur are fully electrified . Map of IR's electrification status from CORE's website tells that track beyond Saharanpur upto Najibabad has been fully electrified and energized . MEMUs & Goods trains with WAG-7 Locos have been spotted on this route . The track between Lucknow and Roja Jn has also been electrified and energized . The stretch between Roja Jn and Najibabad is going to complete it's electrification. Similar is the situation for sectons like MGS-BNS ans BNS-SLN-LKO. MEMUs on Utretia-Lucknow stretch have also started running . Thus, officially by 2011 the entire Route should be fully electrified and energized . The electrification process of this entire route has been going on since July(?), 2004 and after it's expected completion of "7 MAMMOTH YEARS" , the Entire Calcutta(HWH/SDAH/KOAA)-Amritsar Trunk Route will be fully electrified so trains like Akal Takt & Punjab Express can run...

with 1 SINGLE ELECTRIC Loco like WAP-5/7 on the entire route without any loco change.
Thank You.
