A Puja Special train will run from Muzaffarpur to Mumbai for the festive season. The service was announced on October 2, 2026. It aims to help passengers travelling home for the festivals.

Festive seasons see huge rush on trains from Bihar to Mumbai. Many workers and families travel home to celebrate. Regular trains run full, and waitlists grow long. Special trains add much-needed capacity.

The Railways announces special trains every year around Puja and Diwali. They help manage the extra demand on busy routes. Passengers should check the schedule and book early.

Mumbai has a large population from Bihar and eastern Uttar Pradesh. For them, going home for Puja is a cherished tradition. The special train will make that journey easier this year. The train will run on a fixed schedule during the festive period. Berths can be booked through the usual railway channels. Passengers are advised to carry valid ID proof while travelling. The Railways may add more coaches if demand stays high. Similar specials run on other busy routes too.
