The North Central Railway (NCR)-operated train numbers 01911 and 01912 will see their coach composition increased from 19 to 21. The addition of coaches is expected to provide more seats for passengers and increase the chances of waitlisted tickets being confirmed.
The changes will take effect on train number 01911, the Agra Cantt–Kolkata Special, from October 15, and on train number 01912, the Kolkata–Agra Cantt Special, from October 16. The revised arrangements will remain in effect until November 27, 2026.
