and then blasts past Madhusudanpur station on HB Chord enroute with some brutal force and sheer dominance. Though the honking was not warming enough, yet the buzzing sound was an icing on the cake.
The train is the best train to travel between these two cities, even better than the 12517 Kolkata Chitpur Terminal (KOAA)- Guwahati (GHY) Bi-Weekly GARIB RATH Express. 12345 takes 17h 40m to cover 1001 km with 9 halts and average speed of 56 km/hr, whereas 12517 takes 18h 0m to cover 1005 km with 11 halts and average speed of 55 km/hr.
The Saraighat Express is a daily superfast train which runs between Howrah (Kolkata) and Guwahati (Assam). The train is named after the famous Battle of Saraight fought between Mughals and rulers of Assam (Ahom Kingdom) in which Mughals were defeated by the Ahoms under the great leadership of Mahavir Lachit Barphukan Commander-in-Chief.
