Asarwa Platform Wall Work to Disrupt Train Services for a Month; MEMU Cancelled, Express Trains Shifted to Naroda

Train services at Asarwa railway station will undergo changes for nearly a month as Western Railway takes a traffic block for construction of a platform wall on Platform No. 3.

The Ahmedabad Division of Western Railway has scheduled the traffic block from October 1 to October 30 to facilitate the construction work. As a result, some trains operating to and from Asarwa will be cancelled, while others will either terminate or originate at Naroda instead of Asarwa.

The changes will affect MEMU services as well as the Indore-Asarwa Veer Bhumi Express and a special service. Passengers travelling on the affected routes will need to take note of the revised train operations for the specified dates.

Asarwa-Himmatnagar MEMU Services Cancelled

Two MEMU services between Asarwa and Himmatnagar have been cancelled in connection with the traffic block.

Train No. 69245, operating from Asarwa to Himmatnagar, will remain completely cancelled from October 1 to October 30.

In the reverse direction, Train No. 69246, running from Himmatnagar to Asarwa, will remain completely cancelled from October 2 to October 31.

The two services have been cancelled to accommodate the platform wall construction work at Asarwa station.

Indore-Asarwa Veer Bhumi Express to Terminate at Naroda

The traffic block will also change the operation of the Indore-Asarwa Veer Bhumi Express.

Train No. 19315, Indore-Asarwa Veer Bhumi Express, will not reach Asarwa during the affected period. From September 30 to October 29, the train will be short-terminated at Naroda station.

This means that passengers travelling on the train towards Asarwa will have their journey end at Naroda instead of Asarwa on the specified dates.

The return service, Train No. 19316, Asarwa-Indore Veer Bhumi Express, will also be affected. From October 1 to October 30, the train will originate from Naroda instead of Asarwa.

Khedbrahma-Asarwa Special Also Short-Terminated

Another service affected by the work is Train No. 09406, Khedbrahma-Asarwa Bhadarvi Poonam Special.

On October 1, the train will be short-terminated at Naroda instead of Asarwa.

Thus, passengers using this special service on October 1 will not have Asarwa as the terminating station.

Changes Linked to Platform No. 3 Construction

The operational changes have been introduced specifically because of the construction of the platform wall on Platform No. 3 at Asarwa railway station.

The traffic block has been planned from October 1 to October 30, during which the railway administration will carry out the development work. While the MEMU services have been cancelled for the specified dates, the affected express and special trains will either terminate at or originate from Naroda.

Passengers using Asarwa station during this period will therefore be affected by the revised arrangements, particularly those travelling on the Asarwa-Himmatnagar MEMU and Indore-Asarwa Veer Bhumi Express services.
