The 12427/12428 Rewa–Anand Vihar Terminal Superfast Express is a daily Superfast Express train of the Indian Railways, running between Rewa, a city of Madhya Pradesh and Anand Vihar Terminal of Delhi with LHB coaches which are safer than regular ICF coaches. The train originally ran from New Delhi Railway Station before being shifted to Anand Vihar station on 2 September 2021. The train is operated by Indian Railways' Northern Railway zone on the section which is part of the busy Howrah–Delhi main line (Grand Trunk section). It is, along with the prestigious Shaan-e-Bhopal Express, one of the first ISO 9002-certified trains in India because of its security features and high priority on the Indian Railways. However, it takes two hours more than the Rajdhani Express to cover the same distance. It is also slower than some other Superfast trains in this section, but has one of highest commercial speeds amongst non-Rajdhani trains.

Motive power
The normally-assigned locomotive for the Rewa Superfast Express is a HoG WAP-7 locomotive from either the Tughlakabad or Ghaziabad shed. The train reverses at Satna Junction and a WAP-4 or WAP-7 locomotive from Itarsi shed hauls it to the Rewa terminal.
Since the route is fully electrified a Ghaziabad (GZB) HOG WAP 7 locomotive hauls the train from Anand Vihar Terminal to Satna Junction where a WAP-4 electric locomotive reverses and hauls the train for the remaining journey to Rewa Terminal and vice versa.
Loco change: Satna Junction
