ECoR Halts Puri–Howrah Shatabdi Services Tomorrow
Bhubaneswar, June 15: The East Coast Railway (ECoR) has announced the cancellation of two Shatabdi Express services scheduled for June 16, 2026.
Train No. 12278 (Puri–Howrah) and Train No. 12277 (Howrah–Puri) will remain off the tracks due to operational constraints caused by the late running of a connecting train.
The decision is expected to impact passengers travelling between Odisha and West Bengal, particularly during peak hours.
ECoR has advised travellers to check the latest train status through the National Train Enquiry System (NTES) or official railway enquiry channels before commencing their journey.
Railway officials emphasised that the cancellation was necessary to maintain operational safety and efficiency.
Passengers are urged to make alternative arrangements and stay updated on further advisories.
