Why does this Raj get a diesel? I believe, there is maximum electrification in Delhi, UP, West Bengal section. Once it has to go beyond West Bengal, it can change the loco and put on a diesel. My gut feeling tells me that they might be short of electric locos. I may be wrong if this train which follows an unelectrified route while it passes through Lucknow or else where. Does some one know anything about it?
@bhushan80 actually dude there are 3 types of DBRT/Guhawati rajdhani's running currently..2235,24235,2423/24..2424/2423 goes Via Kanpur-Allahabad-Mughalsarai and get's loco change from electric to diesel from barauni to GHY.2435/2235 goes via Ghaziabad-Moradabad-Bareily-Lucknow-Varanasi which is an un electrified train so that's why diesel goes with it from point to point.
@atigupta U r right, 2235/2236 and 2435/2436 goes via non electrified route, both the routes are almost same except a small portion in Bihar where 2235/2236 goes via Muzzafarpur, Samastipur instead of Barauni!!!!!
i have been travelled in this 1 from newjalpaiguri to delhi......the wdm3a gives its best efforts to keep this 1 on time most of the year

This is the longest Rajdhani in terms of travelling time. The color was changed as the exterior of the coach once caught fire!!!!!!
