It is another fast alternative next after Falaknuma Express on this route. The train has less halts than any other train from Kolkata/Bhubaneswar to Secunderabad as it has just two halts between Vishakhapatnam and Secunderabad. Though it’s a superfast train, it is less clean comparing to other trains. But the good fact is that, the train arrives at every halt almost in time.
The 12514/Guwahati–Secunderabad Express has an average speed of 55 km/h and covers 2553 km in 45h 40m.the 12513 Secunderabad–Guwahati Express has an average speed of 54 km/h and covers the same distance in 46h 30m.
