Eastern Railway adds Badkulla stop, special Sealdah services
Eastern Railway has added a temporary stop at Badkulla for four Sealdah-Krishnanagar-Sealdah AC EMU locals from 12 October to 31 December 2026. The experimental stoppage applies to trains 31845, 31846, 31847 and 31848, with departures from Badkulla between 11:53 am and 4:15 pm.
A pair of EMU specials will run between Shantipur and Krishnanagar via Dignagar from 13 October to 31 December, 2026. Eastern Railway has also revised the timings of two existing locals and will operate a night special pair between Sealdah and Budge Budge until 31 December. The services will depart Sealdah at 10:55 pm and Budge Budge at 11:54 pm.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The changes target passengers needing an additional AC local stop, a Shantipur-Krishnanagar connection and late-night travel between Sealdah and Budge Budge. Existing passengers on two locals will also face temporary timing changes, with one service leaving earlier and the other later than before. All three measures are temporary, so their continuation beyond 31 December 2026 is not specified. The experimental services will run through 31 December 2026.
