Travelling in it since the age of 3 years.
Bas ek hi hope thi ki isse end to end WAP-7 aur ye sapna ab pura v ho raha hai HIJ bypass ke baad.

Correct me if I am wrong, but AFAIK Neelanchal was the first train service between Puri and New Delhi. It was started before the Chandrapura-Gomoh (Dhanbad bypass) line was built in the early 1980s. Purushottam was started after Neelanchal.
Prior to this devlopments, this two train would take the now extinct Chandrapura-Dhanbad line, and would be hauled by a steam locomotive upto Dhanbad, from wherein this an Asansol electric locomotive would take charge upto Mughalsarai.
Back then, the present Dhanbad station was non-existent rather the railway station was situated near the present CCU

thus facilitaating easy rake reversals.
Nandan Kanan was introduced far later, and it never ran via Dhanbad, it always ran via GMO.
