Train number 07458, Secunderabad Sankranti Special Train, will depart Kakinada Town at 8:40 pm and arrive at Secunderabad at 8:45 am on the next day.
En route, the train will halt at popular Sankranti hubs such as Samarlakota, Dwarapudi, Rajamundry, Nidadvolu, Tadepelligudem, Tanuku, Bhimavaram Town, Akividu, Kaikaluru, Vijayawada, Guntur and others.
