Disagree:This post makes no sense Disagree:Illogical demands Disagree:Very long route
After the construction of Pendra Road - Gevra Road Railway Line , 12251/52 Korba Yeswantpur
Wainganga Express should extend till the place where Wainganga River Originates i.e. till Seoni via Anuppur,Shahdol,Katni South, Jabalpur,Nainpur so that it should fulfill the name of Wainganga Express. If you thing route is very long , it runs 2 days in a week, then arrange more rakes and start new Wainganga Express from Seoni to Yeswantpur via Nainpur Balaghat Gondia Balharshah Kacheguda .
Please note: it's only a suggestion,rest Railway board, MP's thing about it
