12th march 2015.. my first ever experience of Goa Express..
we were about to celebrate the bachelor's party of one of my friend in Goa..
the real plan was to go there in January but didn't executed due to work commitment of one of our friend.. later i booked my 3A ticket in Goa exp almsot 58days before the journey date n got GNWL10/ WL10.. I was sure ye confirm ho jayega aur IRI pe bhi sab confirm bata rahe the.. on my journey date the status was RAC 9.. now...
more...

i was confused n had to believe ki Goa bohot demand wali train hai.. finally ticket got confirmed RF Archie sent a msg that "confirm ho gaya hai aur SLB seat mili hai" maje karo :)
the best thing was meri seat 47 thi n mere friends ki Pune se same compartment me 43 n 44 thi..
train departed few min late from NZM.. i was a bit late due to traffic aur 14:57 pe NZM phunch paya tha.. ek baar to laga ki train miss ho gayi aaj.. lekin train 15:10 pe departure liya usdin..
P7 accelerated fast n train reached MTZ 5min BT.. same story goes on till Daund n Goa reached everywhere BT.. departed RT from Daund after loco reversal n overtaken Jhelum somewhere between DAUND n PUNE...
Pune outer pe bhi BT aayi lekin wahan again Jhelum ne OT kara aur Goa finally 15min late aayi Pune station.. friends joined me from Pune n it was a memorable journey when you got like minded people in ur train journey..
finally reached MAO almost 90min delay at 7am.. it was a great journey bt still i feel there should be a dedicated Rajdhani for Goa..
overall Goa Express ke bare me jitna suna tha us se jyada achhi train hai ye :)
09/10 for this train :)
