For the first time in 140+ years 12343 Sealdah - New Jalpaiguri Darjeeling Mail will depart from Sealdah, today, with an Electric Loco right till NJP. A WAP 7 from Howrah will be incharge of the Prestigious Darjeeling Mail. #Electrification #NFR.

Little Error. During Our Childhood , Darjeeling Mail Used To Depart With E-Loco From SDAH And There Used To Be Loco Change At BWN.... It Was Same In Case Of Kanchanjungha Express
