This is the rush for 13466 Malda Town Howrah Intercity Express at Khagraghat Road ( Berhampore) Railway Station. Infact all Railway station of BAK loop are heavily dependent on this train .

Why don't Railway Authorities introduce one clone of this train or extend 1 or 2 Katwa Azimganj Passenger pair to Howrah?

পূর্ব রেলওয়ে (ER) বিশেষ করে, হাওড়া ও শিয়ালদহ ডিভিসন সম্পূর্ণরূপে কলকাতাকেন্দ্রিক, শহর কলকাতার বাইরের অঞ্চলের প্রয়োজন সবসময় উপেক্ষা করে। তুলনামূলকভাবে, উত্তর-পূর্ব সীমান্ত রেলওয়ে অনেক ভালো, তারা শুধুমাত্র বালুরঘাট থেকে নয়, রাধিকাপুরের মত নিম্ন আয়যোগ্য স্টেশন থেকেও দুরপাল্লার ট্রেন চালাতে সক্ষম।
