The 12033 / 12034 '''Kanpur–New Delhi Shatabdi Express''' is the Shatabdi train connecting {{stnlnk|Kanpur Central}} with {{stnlnk|New Delhi}}. The load of passengers in [[Lucknow Swarna Shatabdi Express]] was heavy from {{stnlnk|Kanpur Central}}. Due to the excessive passenger load on Lucknow Shatabdi from Kanpur Central and huge demand for a separate Shatabdi train from Kanpur Central, the Railway Ministry declared the new Shatabdi train from Central Station in 2009 [[Railway Budget]]. This train was flagged off by Union Railways minister [[Mamata Banerjee]] on 7 Feb 2010.{{citation needed|date=June 2017}} It runs on all days of a week except Sunday.

In its initial days, it used to run non-stop between Kanpur and New Delhi. Later, {{stnlnk|Ghaziabad}} and {{stnlnk|Etawah}} were added as intermediate stops and from 9 July 2016 {{citation needed|date=June 2017}} {{stnlnk|Aligarh}} was also added.

It is called Kanpur Reverse Shatabdi because it follows the reverse timetable of Lucknow Shatabdi; i.e. UP follows DOWN time table and vice versa.
