Jalgaon also is another beneficiary of this diversion. Many trains from Western railways that arrive from Ahemdabad/ Surat are now using Jalgaon as turn-point for their route towards Banglore/ Chennai. Paschim Express, Swarajya Express, Ahinsa Express, Jodhpur-Banglore Express, Ajmer Banglore Express, Hapa-Trivendram Express and Trivendram-Nijjamudin Rajdhani Express are the trains that are using Jalgaon as key turning point.
Imagine if Jalgaon/ Bhusaval could get any of these trains permanently via them. It will make huge benefits for entire Jalgaon district. How beautiful it will be if our area leaders could do something to make such strong benefits to the region?
