History

[edit]

It was introduced as a superfast express betweenThiruvananthapuram North -Dehradun Superfast Express. The train used to run via Kottayam and was rerouted toAlappuzha post covid lockdown. As Dehradun Railway doesn't hold 24 coaches in platform some slip coaches will be detached at Haridwar which ran asHaridwar -Thiruvananthapuram North Slip Superfast Express. Since Yog NagariRishikesh Railway Station was developed and reconstructed, the railway authority had decided to withdraw coaches running to Dehradun and slip coaches to Haridwar. Instead they decided to run it as a train without slip coaches. After Yog Nagari Rishikesh was developed it was extended to Rishikesh, instead of Dehradun and slip coaches were made to run as a full coach train to Rishikesh. Therefore it runs asThiruvananthapuram North - Yog NagariRishikesh Superfast Express.

After April 2021, the service to Dehradun and the slip coaches to Haridwar were permanently discontinued and was extended to Rishikesh instead of Dehradun and it will run as Yog NagariRishikesh -Thiruvananthapuram North Superfast Express.
