Thanks for the post, actually this train initially ran with numbers 939/40 between Cochin Harbour Terminus (CHTS) and Guwahati (GHY). Ernakulam termination happened after railway's decision to shift all trains to Ernakulam. Back then used to run with a green livery, the sleeper classes had no cushioning in its berths. It had a solitary AC 2 tier coach in the middle.
