existing trains between the two destinations. The train will make stops at several stations including Kachiguda, Shadnagar, Jadcherla, Mahbubnagar, Gadwal, Kurnool City, Guntakal, Bellary, Hosapete, Koppal, Gadag, Hubballi, Dharwad, Londa, Castle Rock, Kulem, Sanvordem, and Madgaon.

da Gama se Thursday aur Saturdays ko wapas aayegi. Train Kachiguda, Shadnagar, Jadcherla, Mahbubnagar, Gadwal, Kurnool City, Guntakal, Bellary, Hosapete, Koppal, Gadag, Hubballi, Dharwad, Londa, Castle Rock, Kulem, Sanvordem aur Madgaon railway stations pe rukengi. March mein Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw ko likhe gaye letter mein yeh bataya gaya tha ki Secunderabad aur Goa ke beech trainon ki seats book karna mushkil ho raha hai, kyunki yeh trains 100% bhari jaa rahi thi. Lekin Lok Sabha elections ke liye Model Code of Conduct aane ke baad yeh baat ruk gayi thi. BJP ki sarkar ke vapas aane ke baad, Railway Minister ne is train ko approve kiya.
