The Panchaganga Express (Train No. 16586), typically running between Mangaluru Central and Mumbai Lokmanya Tilak Terminus, will be short-terminated at Yeshwantpur for three days – February 16, 17, and 18 – due to yard remodelling work at Mumbai Lokmanya Tilak Terminus.
Consequently, the train will not complete its journey to Mumbai during these dates. Passengers holding confirmed tickets for travel between Mangaluru Central and Mumbai Lokmanya Tilak Terminus on these days will be refunded the fare difference.
The short termination is a result of ongoing infrastructure upgrades at the Mumbai terminus. South Western Railway officials have stated the remodelling is necessary to enhance operational efficiency and safety.
Passengers are advised to check with railway authorities or visit the official website for updated information regarding the train’s schedule and refund procedures. The railway administration has arranged for full value refund for the affected portion of the journey.
The impact is limited to the three-day period, and the train is expected to resume its normal operations from February 19th onwards. Passengers intending to travel during this period are encouraged to confirm the train’s running status before commencing their journey.
Further details and assistance can be obtained from railway information counters or by contacting railway helplines. The railway authorities have apologized for any inconvenience caused to passengers due to this temporary alteration in the train’s schedule. The remodelling work is crucial for long-term improvements to the railway network.
