The train's departure from New Tinsukia is scheduled for 02:30 p.m., reaching Dhubri at 04:30 a.m. the following day. In the opposite direction, the train will leave Dhubri at 05:00 a.m. and arrive at New Tinsukia at 10:00 p.m. on the same day.
The train is slated to make stops at various stations, including Dhemaji, Bishwanath Chariali, Udalguri, Rangiya Junction, Nalbari, Tihu, Pathsala, New Bongaigaon, Sapatgram, and Gauripur. The train will offer different coach classes such as AC 3-tier, sleeper class, and general second-class coaches.
