The Sialkot Express resumed operations this week after a 12-year suspension, receiving a festive welcome at the Sialkot Railway Station. The relaunch of the service was marked by joyous scenes, including traditional drum performances, dancing, and a shower of flower petals on the train as it arrived.

The revival of the train fulfills a long-standing public demand from the residents of Sialkot, who had repeatedly urged for the return of this critical rail link. Local officials and commuters hailed the occasion as a significant step toward improving regional connectivity and easing travel between key cities.

According to railway officials, the Sialkot Express will now run on a revised route between Lahore, Wazirabad, and Sialkot. The service is expected to offer a more convenient travel option for daily passengers and boost local trade and mobility.

A railway station official confirmed that the route would facilitate smoother travel across Punjab’s important commercial and industrial hubs. “The restoration of this service is not just about transport; it is a matter of pride for the people of Sialkot,” the official said.
