History

In the beginning the train used to run between Bombay Victoria Terminus (station code VT) [now Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus Mumbai, (station code CSMT)] and Faizabad (station code FD) but later on the starting station was shifted from Mumbai CSMT to Lokmanya Tilak Terminus Kurla (station code LTT) from where it currently runs.

Saket Express is one of the two trains that connect Faizabad to Mumbai via Sultanpur Junction and Pratapgarh Junction, the other being the Faizabad Superfast Express, which runs once a week via Shahganj Junction and Jaunpur Junction.
