I couldn\u2019t find any evidence of a specific Mahashivratri Special Train<\/strong> running between Madgaon<\/strong> and Nagpur<\/strong> in recent years. However, here are some relevant festival-oriented train services on this route:<\/p>\n

\n

          \n

              Current Status (2025)<\/h3>\n

              There are no public announcements or records<\/strong> of Mahashivratri-specific specials between Madgaon and Nagpur<\/strong> in 2025.<\/p>\n

              \n
