The mighty veteran Purulia Express serving for decades, daily commuters' lifeline and witness to a Rising Bengal! - Soumyadip Mahato

Yo, check out my proposal for Howrah-Varanasi VB trip. We start at Howrah at 6:05 am, reach Asansol at 8:10-12, then at Dhanbad at 9:00-5, and finally at Gaya at 11:20-22. We'll hit Varanasi at 2:00 pm. For the return, we'll leave Varanasi at 2:45 pm, reach Gaya at 5:20-22, then Dhanbad at 7:37-42, Aligarh at 8:30-32, and finally at Howrah at 10:40 pm. The total distance we'll cover is 681 kms, time taken will be 7 hours 55 mins, and we'll travel at a speed of 86 kmph. This falls under ER zone.
