Neora–Daniyawan–Bihar Sharif–Sheikhpura line was approved in 2002–03 by Indian Railways in order to reduce loads of trains on Danapur–Kiul route of Howrah–Delhi main line. This was considered a very ambitious project in order to improve train operations on Patna–Jhajha–Howrah railway section. The railways have made progress on this project, particularly between the Daniyawan and Barbigha route. The train is running on Bihar Sharif–Daniyawan rail line from 2015. Bihar Sharif–Barbigha and Barbigha–Sheikhpura railway lines are being built. However, they have not made much progress on the route between Neora and Daniyawan due to land acquisition problem.
