The 15955 / 15956 '''Brahmaputra Mail''' is a daily train that connects [[Old Delhi]] with [[Dibrugarh]] (an important town in upper [[Assam]]). Introduced in 1972 after the construction of the rail section of the [[Farakka Barrage]], the train originally ran as the Tinsukia Mail between [[Delhi Junction]] railway station and New Bongaigaon railway stations, with onward meter gauge connection by a train of the same name numbered as 7Up and 8Dn to [[Guwahati]] and [[Tinsukia]] in the Indian state of [[Assam]]. The train was renamed the Brahmaputra Mail after the successful [[gauge conversion]] of the New Bongaigaon- [[Dibrugarh]] meter gauge lines to broad gauge. W.E.F. 20/12/2020 this train will run between {{stnlnk|Kamakhya Junction}} '''(KYQ)''' & [[Old Delhi railway station|Old Delhi]] '''(DLI)''' & to be permanently cancelled between {{stnlnk|Kamakhya Junction}} '''(KYQ)''' & [[Dibrugarh railway station|Dibrugarh]] '''(DBRG)'''

==Services==
Originally ran as 155 dn by 156 up it was originally started by Northeast Frontier Railway which is called NFR in short. Later on, the primary maintenance was transferred to the Delhi Division of the Northern Railway and ran under the numbers 14056up by 14055 dn. The train recently got LHB rake and the primary maintenance went back to NFR with Dibrugarh being the maintenance station. Once the pride of NFR with neon lights in its first class compartments and has eight cushioned sleeper class coaches in the 1970s, the train went to a sharp decline both in priority and facilities with conditioning of its rake worsening. However, with the new LHB rake trying to get its lost glory back. The up train belongs to [[Northeast Frontier Railway Zone]].
