History

Ahmedabad–Saharsa Express, popularly known as the Ahmedabad–Saharsa Sahara Express, was initially introduced as a special train service in 2019 to improve long-distance rail connectivity between Ahmedabad in Gujarat and Bihar. The train operated via Surat, Muzaffarpur Junction, and Patliputra Junction, catering primarily to migrant passengers travelling between western and eastern India.
On 25 January 2021, the service was regularised by Indian Railways. Following regularisation, the train was allotted permanent train numbers 19483 and 19484, with regular operations commencing from 1 March 2021.
In 2025, the train’s route was further extended from Barauni Junction to Saharsa Junction via Khagaria, significantly enhancing rail connectivity to the Kosi region of Bihar. With this extension, the service began directly linking Ahmedabad with Saharsa, benefiting passengers from north-eastern Bihar and surrounding areas.
