Great Great Great Great
Today it will be marked as a historical day for Mailani Pilibhit section.
After 6 years a BG train operated from PBE to LJN, now entire ASH-KSJ MG section is converted FROM MG to BG electrified route. It will provide an entire route of NER for direct trains from GKP to KGM.
A new train is expected to introduce between GKP-KGM through this route, a long demand of passengers will be fulfilled very soon.
15043/44

is expected to run from this route.
CNB-KGM Gareebrath can also run from this route in future.
If my assumption would be right then new tri weekly train which is recently approved by RB between KSJ-LJN will go through this route.
If sources to be believed then section is expected to be opened for general public in 2nd or 3rd week of April without any function and later after election some function will happen.

Agree
Need an overnight train from Kathgodam to Varanasi via Sitapur, Burhwal, Mankapur, Ayodhya.

Long time demand of sitapur residents for varanasi connectivity and I think either this or by Gorakhpur - Mau route is going to be fastest. But this route has Ayodhya which is an added benefit.

Most probably 15043/44 will run from this route so it will be as per TT of Nainital Express

Still I can remember legacy of this train.My 1st ride on this train was year 2000. Train then used to depart from LJN. After that I ve to board this train from ASH.
My favourite was its 1st class coup, I travelled in Sleeper also. On my trip to Kumaon either to Lku or TPU (on sleep coach ex PBE). Even on my trip to Dudhwa I used to reach Mailani (then early morning Gonda pasenger to Palia kalan) . Mosr probably I travelled in this train 10-12 times.
Miss this route

Do you remember when LJN was reconverted from MG to BG exactly? I lived in Lucknow from early 2000s but LJN was BG back then. Aishbagh was the MG terminus.

Hmm at that time, most of the platform lines of LJN terminus were partially converted into BG. But in 2002 I ve to board Nainital express at ASH.
