Musa Pak Express (Urdu: موسى پاک ایکسپریس) is a passenger train operated daily by Pakistan Railways between Multan and Lahore.[1] The trip takes approximately 5 hours and 10 minutes to cover a published distance of 312 kilometres (194 mi), traveling along a stretch of the Karachi–Peshawar Railway Line. The train named after Syed Abul Hassab Musa Pak, a famous Sufi saint who lived in Multan between 1535–1592.[2][3][4][5] It is one of the best trains to travel between Lahore and Multan due to its low fares and good quality.
