Benapole Express (Train no. 795-796) is a semi non-stop intercity train which runs between Dhaka (capital of Bangladesh) and Benapole. The train connects the capital to an important Land port of Bangladesh.

History

There was no train service directly from Benapole to Dhaka. So Bangladesh government had decided to operate a new intercity train on Dhaka-Benapole route as the existing train makes 14 stops, taking the total travel time to 10 to 12 hours.[1] In order to reach Dhaka, the passengers of India are facing extreme suffering. The only road to travel depends on the bus. This breakthrough move saves at least 3 to 4 hours as Benapole Express is reaching its destination within 7–8 hours daily. The Benapole Express has been scheduled to run non-stop for six days every week.[2]

Naming

The train is named after its final destination. At first, a few names including Bandar Express, Ichhamati Express and Benapole Express were proposed but former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina had finalized the name Benapole Express.

Coaches

The Benapole Express has a total of 896 seats. There are 12 new coaches on the train with advanced technologies and facilities which have been procured from China. Among them, two are air-conditioned controlled. There is a wheelchair system for disabled passengers, which is the first in Bangladesh.[3]

Halts
