Reference :
Yal Devi (sinhala: යාල් දේවී; Tamil: யாழ் தேவி) is a major intercity express train in Sri Lanka.[2] Operated by Sri Lanka Railways, the Yal Devi connects Colombo, the nation's commercial hub, with the northern cities of Jaffna and Kankesanturai. Since 1990, the service has had to terminate at intermediate stations, due to the Sri Lankan civil war. Currently the Northern Line is being rebuilt to allow the Yal Devi to return to Jaffna and Kankesanturai.[3]
