I missed sc ghy express due to late running ypr kcg express. rushed to kcg station master. he signed on my blank paper continuation ticket and said I can either go for refund or travel in any train destined to howrah and beyond. I boarded east coast. my tkt was of 3a. tte asked me to wait till warangal till he checked the charts and I got an easy berth much before warangal
again a beauty of a train
excellent maintenance regular room freshners and clean toilets. no waiting list passengers in class...
more... 3a but sleeper class was horrible. some 100+ people in each coach till Kharagpur. nice on board catering. not too costly. ..chicken meals at 100 & chicken Briyani at 150...bt hot n delicious. reached howrah at 1605. ten minutes before scheduled. On board staff very courteous. jus dat way too many stoppages even though hardly any passengers at those stoppages
