FEW INFO ABOUT Howrah  Yuva Express :-
       The Yuva Express series of trains were introduced by the then Minister of Railways Mamata Banerjee during the 2009-10 budget together with the Duronto Express. They were intended to provide an air conditioned low cost travel option for the youth of the country. 
      
  The Howrah - New Delhi Yuva Express is an important superfast train of Indian Railways, that connects Kolkata, the capital of West Bengal to New Delhi, the national capital. The train was inaugurated by former railway minister Mamta Banerjee, to help the youths of both towns to ply in between. This train is considered to be the cheapest of all AC trains between the two cities.

     Sixty percent seats of the train are reserved for students, low-income groups & people belonging to the age group of 18-45yrs. To avail this facility, a traveller must have an age/income proof. This train comprises about 10-11 AC Chair Car coaches , two ac 3tier  and 2 End-On-Generation Vans. The train is regularly hauled by a Ghaziabad Shed WAP 7 or a Howrah shed WAP 4 or Howrah based WAP 7 locomotive. Sometimes as an offlink it also gets Ghaziabad based WAP 5. This train runs with old ICF Coaches with a green n yellow livery.

       The trains have not had particularly good success & the initial Howrah & Mumbai Yuva Express trains remain the only trains running under the Yuva Class.
