&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news | url=https://trainsofindia.travel.blog/2020/05/25/lucknow%e2%87%8cnew-delhi-swarna-shatabdi-express/|title=Lucknow ⇌ New Delhi Swarna Shatabdi Express(12003⇌12004)|work=[[Trains Of India]]|access-date=25 May 2020}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Overview==&lt;br /&gt;
This train is a &#039;&#039;Swarna&#039;&#039; category [[Shatabdi Express]] train, &#039;&#039;Swarna&#039;&#039; is a Sanskrit word meaning [[gold]]. Swarna Shatabdi means that it caters better amenities to passengers and also generates better revenue for [[Indian Railways]] as compared to other Shatabdi Express trains. Not every train in Indian Railways carries &#039;&#039;Swarna&#039;&#039; tag. It is hauled by an [[Electric Loco Shed, Ghaziabad]] [[WAP-7]] or [[WAP-5]] Locomotive.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
Earlier this train used to run between {{stnlnk|Kanpur Central}} and New Delhi non-stop, a 435&amp;amp;nbsp;km stretch.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|url=http://www.irfca.org/faq/faq-trivia-old.html|title=[IRFCA] Indian Railways FAQ: Trivia|publisher=IRFCA|access-date=2018-03-20}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; After the gauge conversion in 1993, it was extended and previous terminal, Kanpur Central was converted to its only halt and later halted at Aligarh. Later on, it was also given halt at Ghaziabad and Etawah.&lt;br /&gt;
Lucknow Swarna Shatabdi Express is the first train in [[Indian Railways]] to get [[LHB coaches]] on trial basis.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Initiatives==&lt;br /&gt;
Lucknow Swarna Shatabdi has been awarded the ISO certification.&lt;br /&gt;

Temporary coaches that may/may not be attached depending on demand. Coach compositions are as follows-&lt;br /&gt;
* 12003- LOCO-EOG-C16-C15-C14-C13-C12-C11-C10-C9-C8-C7-C6-C5-C4-C3-C2-C1-E2-E1-EOG. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Speed==&lt;br /&gt;
Its all coaches are of air conditioned [[LHB coaches]] type which is capable of reaching 160 kmph but it does not touch. Sometimes people become confused because according to Indian Railways Permanent Way Manual (IRPWM) on Indian Railways website or Indian Railway Institute of Civil Engineering website, the BG (Broad Gauge) lines have been classified into six groups ‘A’ to ‘E’ on the basis of the future maximum permissible speeds but it may not be same as present speed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The maximum permissible speed is 130 kmph except two parts - first 29 km of journey or New Delhi (NDLS) – Chipyana Buzrung (CYZ) part where Railway is trying to raise maximum permissible sectional speed to 130 kmph from 110 kmph [https://indianrailways.gov.in/railwayboard/uploads/directorate/civil_engg/CE_II/2019/Raising%20of%20sectionl%20speed%20to%20130%20kmph%20%20(dated%2017_12_2019).pdf] and after leaving route towards Howrah, last 72 km of journey or Kanpur (CNB) – Lucknow NE Jn (LJN) route has sectional speed of 110 kmph but speed of about first 2 Kms, under North Central Railway of this route is unknown - it is as per System Map of Northern Railway (as on 31.03.2021) [https://nr.indianrailways.gov.in/uploads/files/1630992607026-Final%20NR%20Divnl%20Book%2031%2003%202021%20(Complete).pdf]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Railway board has approved the speed policy which envisages operation of passenger trains at 160 kmph on Delhi – Howrah (incl CNB-LKO that is Kanpur - Lucknow NR) route and this train leaves route towards Howrah from Kanpur and then passes through Kanpur (CNB) – Lucknow NE Jn (LJN) route which is about same as Kanpur (CNB) – Lucknow NR (LKO) route but it is still unclear what will its impact on this train in future like increasing of speed but not up to 160 kmph or up to 160 kmph [https://indianrailways.gov.in/railwayboard/uploads/directorate/civil_engg/CE_II/2020/12032020.pdf]&lt;br /&gt;
