Gujranwala is twenty minutes away and has more of everything
Wazirabad sits close enough to Gujranwala that the two share a transport market. Gujranwala has more services, more classes and more departures. If nothing direct to Wazirabad suits your timing, the twenty minute local hop from Gujranwala is barely an inconvenience, and on a three and a half hour journey it usually beats waiting.

From Rs 1,800
Our verdict
Waraich Express at Rs 1,150 is the right answer on this route. Air conditioning for Rs 200 above the floor is worth having, and Rs 650 below Daewoo for a journey this short is money better kept. Take Daewoo only if Wazirabad is one stop on a longer trip down the corridor.
