If I remember correctly, 22897 and 22898 Kandari Exp (HWH≈DGHA) used to have a halt at Deshapran(DSPN) station during pre covid times. But the resumption of the train after pandemic, the stop at DSPN was removed for this train.
What can the reason for this? DSPN provides comparatively good patronage for the few local trains available here, as per lastest data, footfall here is greater than RMRB. I think some express trains can be halted here on experimental basis.
