Punjab Mail was running prior to 15 March 1905 as this notification informs diversion via Agra Rd-DLI-GZB-MTC-SRE-UMB instead of AF-TDL-KUN (AGC-DLI Section opened in 1904)!!
This train was on line of Frontier Mail (MTJ-ASR) till FZR-Lahore Section opened up (probably in 1911). Punjab Mail maiden run via FZR could happen in 1912. Punjab Limited was not a just a postal special as it offered luxury & Dining Car & Servant Accomodation!!
