'''Kashi Express''' numbered as 15017/15018 is a regular express train of [[Indian Railways]], running between [[Lokmanya Tilak Terminus]], [[Mumbai]], the capital city of [[Maharashtra]], and [[Gorakhpur|Gorakhpur Junction]], the prominent city of [[Uttar Pradesh]].<br />

* 6 unreserved<br />
* 2 unreserved cum luggage/brake van<br />

As Central Railways completed its DC–AC conversion on 12 February 2014, a [[Electric Loco Shed, Bhusawal|Bhusawal]] or [[Electric Loco Shed, Itarsi|Itarsi]]-based [[Indian locomotive class WAP-4|WAP-4]] hauls the train from [[Lokmanya Tilak Terminus]] to Itarsi after which an Itarsi-based WDM-3A/3D hauls the train for the remainder of its journey until Gorakhpur.<br />
<br />
Before 12 February 2014, this train was hauled by a Kalyan-based [[Indian locomotive class WCAM-3|WCAM-3]] locomotive between LTT and {{stnlnk|Igatpuri}} as the route was DC electrified.<br />
