The 12707 / 12708 Andhra Pradesh Sampark Kranti Express is a South Central Railway train running from New Delhi to Tirupati. It is part of the Sampark Kranti Express series of trains, which link the Indian national capital, New Delhi, with the rest of the state capitals, with only a limited number of stops on each service.

The Andhra Pradesh Sampark Kranti Express commenced operations between Secunderabad and Hazrat Nizamuddin near New Delhi. On 6 July 2005, Shri Anjan Kumar Yadav, MP, and Hyderabad mayor, Teegala Krishna Reddy, flagged off the train from Secunderabad station when the service was extended to Tirupati via Kurnool, Dhone and Kadapa.

The Andhra Pradesh Sampark Kranti Express operates as a three times a week train service between Secunderabad, Hazrat Nizamuddin and Tirupati.

Before the Andhra Pradesh Sampark Kranti Express was introduced, the (12625/12626) Kerala Express between New Delhi and Trivandrum was the only daily train connecting the Tirupati and New Delhi.

Present coach composition comprises 2-SLR coaches, 2-II/General coaches, 4- AC 3 Tier Coaches, 1-AC 2 Tier Coach, 1-Pantry, 1- 1st AC Coach and 9-Sleeper coaches. During the summer extra coaches are provided based on need. An additional 3 tier AC coach was added in September 2012.

The schedule is given below:-

A Lallaguda locomotive shed WAP-7 is attached from Tirupati to Hazrat Nizamuddin. A diesel locomotive from the Gooty Shed, a WDP-4D, is attached from Kurnool to Kacheguda. Because the route from Kurnool to Gadwal is still not electrified, the WDP-4D is attached.
