<P> The 12951 / 12952 Mumbai Rajdhani Express is the fastest train on the Mumbai - Delhi sector and the fastest Rajdhani train as well as the fastest train ( Considering ARS and including halts ) in India . Mumbai Rajdhani Express is the first Rajdhani to get Alstom - LHB Coaches in India . It used to run six days a week until September 2000 after which Railways decided to run it daily . In its early days , it used to cover the distance of 1385 kilometres in each direction in 19 hours and 5 minutes . However , after the electrification of the route , the speed of the train improved and as of 2016 , it takes 15 hours and 35 minutes when operating as train number 12951 at an average speed of 89 km / h ( including halts ) while on its return journey as train number 12952 takes 15 hrs 50 mins at an average speed of 88 km / h ( including halts ) thus making it the fastest train on the Mumbai - Delhi sector . Before the introduction of the LHB coaches , the maximum speed that could be attained with the conventional rakes was 120 km / h. But after introduction of LHB rakes the highest speed could attained is 160 km / h but is restrictred to 135 km / h due to poor conditions of tracks . After their introduction , the LHB coaches enhanced the speed of the Rajdhani to more than 120 km / h and even touching 135 + km / h at times . The highest attained speed is 140 km / h between New Delhi and Mumbai Central . Recently Vasai - Vadodara - Godhra Section top speed is enhanced from 120 km / h to 130 km / h . Hence , Mumbai Rajdhani 's time reduced from 16 hours to 15 hr 35 minutes while it continues to be the fastest train in India ( including halts ) with average speed of 91 km / h.It is the first train ( along with 12953 / 54 August Kranti Rajdhani Express as both have Rake Sharing ) to be experimented with HOG ( Head On Generation ) which powers the train directly from locomotive instead of an EOG or generator van . </P>
