[ HISTORY AND OLD TIME TABLE OF VIKRAMSHILA EXPRESS ]
I know that history of vikramshila expess has not hidden from anyone .
I am just trying to share some history of vikramshila from different sources . (with the help of wikipedia and an old railway time table magazine)
In the early time 3467/68 Vikramshila Express ran from Bhagalpur to Patna Junction
...
more...
(starts at 12:40 pm from bgp and reaches pnbe at 17:45 ) .
Then from Patna Jn , the boggies of Vikramshila were attached to 2391/92 Magadh Express and the train was then named Magadh Express, which leaves Patna Jn. at 07:00 pm and reaches New Delhi on next day at 11:15 am .
In down side from New delhi it starts at 08:00 pm and reaches patna on next day at 11:15 am .
Then from Patna Jn , the boggies of Vikramshila were deattached from 2392 Magadh Express and continues its journey toward Bhagalpur from Patna at 11:50 am reaches its destination at 16:50 pm .
At that time Poorva Express and Magadh Express were the best trains leaving for New Delhi from Patna. Later on, when Mr. Nitish Kumar became the railway minister of India, he gave Vikramshila its own existence and since then Vikramshila Express uses to run from Bhagalpur to Anand Vihar on its own name. In the mean time, Mr. Kumar introduced Sampoorna Kranti Express from Patna to New Delhi. Both the trains were non stop from Patna to New Delhi (Mughalsarai & Kanpur - technical halts) .

Moderators should correct Inaugural Run information of Vikramshila from July 1, 2003 to a date that should be in the 1970s. Vaishali Express inaugural run is listed as October 31, 1973. Vikramshila was started around the same time. Another train that was started during the same time is Tinsukia Mail and it is listed as Oct 1, 1974. Vikramshila fans should research past newsstand get this information corrected.
