Mumbai Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus - Nagpur Junction Duronto Express is a daily service train which runs between Nagpur Junction, the second Capital of Maharashtra after Mumbai and Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus, Mumbai. The train is the most popular on this route. The Duronto Express was introduced in 23 November 2009.It is considered as the fastest daily service Express on NGP-CSMT Central Railway line.
Being a Duronto Express, it does not stop at any other station in between. However it does stop at Bhusawal Junction as a technical Halt. It also stops at Igatpuri and Kasara for removal and addition of banker engines. But from 1 January 2016 all/some technical halts are converted to commercial halt.
Thus tickets are issued from Nagpur, Bhusaval, Igatpuri and Mumbai.
Previously, a WCAM 2/2P or WCAM 3 used to haul the train from Mumbai Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus to Igatpuri (technical halt) following which it got either a WAP 4 of Bhusawal Electric Loco Shed or WAP 7 of Ajni Electric Loco Shed.
With Central Railway completing the change over of 1500 V DC traction to 25,000 V AC traction on 6 June 2015, this train is now hauled end to end by Ajni-based WAP 7.
Nagpur Duronto is the fastest option for this route as it manages to connect the two cities in just 11 hrs.
