The article's information box states that the Sewagram express was launched on 18th Februrary 1867, but it doesn't provides any sources which verifies the fact. The village, after whom the train was named after, was earlier called Segaon, but became Sewagram in 1940, following Gandhi's residence their, due to the name sounding similar to Shegaon in Buldhana, the residence of Saint Gajanan Maharaj. Also Sewagram Junction was opened in 1985 Count of Dombivli (talk) 09:31, 3 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
