Описание: Hussainsagar SF Express 12702 – Hyderabad (HYB) to CSMT Mumbai Journey

Embark on a thrilling rail adventure aboard the 12702 Hussainsagar Superfast Express, affectionately dubbed “The Missile to Mumbai.” You board this daily train at Hyderabad Deccan (HYB) on a drizzly afternoon. The modern LHB rake – only 16 coaches long  – creaks to life under the power of a Lallaguda WAP-7 electric locomotive . As the engine roars, you feel a surge of acceleration; within seconds, you’re zipping through rain-slicked tracks at high speed (average ~56 km/h ). The carriage gently sways under you, but the ride remains smooth thanks to large windows and superior suspension. Onboard, fellow travelers find their seats in the air-conditioned and sleeper coaches (2A, 3A, SL), while some stand in the vestibules, gear in hand. You notice the catering signs (there’s no pantry car, but onboard and e-catering are available ) and the train’s timetable displayed near the door.
• On-Time Performance: Reviewers on rail travel forums praise the Hussainsagar’s punctuality as excellent . Indeed, the schedule is tight, and delays are rare, so you feel confident this high-speed run will reach Mumbai mostly on time.

Note that in late 2024/early 2025, some services were diverted via Karjat–Panvel (bypassing Kalyan) due to track work , but under normal operations the above schedule applies. You can plan your journey with confidence knowing it’s a daily Superfast service  .

Coach Composition & Loco Link

The train runs with LHB coaches – lighter, safer, and capable of higher speed . The typical composition (engine at Hyderabad end) is:
• SLR (Luggage/Brake Van)
• GEN (General Seating, often unreserved)
• GEN (Another General Compartment)
• 2 Sleeper Class (S1–S2)
• 5 AC 3-Tier (B1–B5)
• 3 AC 2-Tier (A1–A3)
• GEN (General)
• GEN (General)
• EOG (End On Generation)

This 16-coach formation (plus the locomotive) gives the Hussainsagar Express a short footprint. The benefit: when it starts, the powerful WAP-7 engine propels it quickly, so you feel rapid acceleration away from stations. The designated locomotive link is a Lallaguda (LGD) shed WAP-7 electric loco, handling the full journey from Hyderabad to Mumbai . Thanks to end-to-end electrification on this route, there’s no engine change. The train is usually assigned one of two identical LHB rakes based at Hyderabad , ensuring consistent maintenance and availability.

Average speed is decent for Indian Superfast: about 56 km/h including halts . If pressed for time, you’ll appreciate how it steadily keeps schedule. Onboard signage and announcements confirm class of travel and next station, but keep an eye on your phone’s map or timetable (since cell signal can be spotty in remote sections).
