Retrieved on 7 April 2013〕 During the PPP government in Pakistan, 2008-2013, the train service was almost completely finished due to shortage of power vans and locomotives. During much of 2012, the train was only running with only economy class coaches and coupled with Millat Express from Khanewal onwards to Karachi. On 16 May 2013, the train was refurbished and a new rake was arranged that included 10 Economy, 3 AC Business and 1 AC Sleeper class coaches. The route of the train was also changed so that now the train is running between Karachi and Lahore via Lodhran-Multan-Khanewal section instead of the Lodhran-Jahanian-Khanewal section. The train still covers the distance between Karachi and Lahore in 18 hours.〔(Nation Newspaper, Karachi Express Revived ), Retrieved on 17 May 2013〕 ==Route== Karachi to Lahore via Hyderabad, Rohri, Multan and Sahiwal 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Karachi Express」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
