I post my train journey on 21st Jan from NDLS to Jaipur. I was allocated C13 coach and reached NDLS by 5:45 AM. The train was stationed at PF-2. While I boarded the train I observed lot of passengers getting birth allocated to the same seat. When clarified, they had C13-L coach as mentioned. I believe it was extra coach which was supposed to be attached. Train started slowly and arrived on time at Delhi cantt and Gurgaon. Newspaper and lemon water was served immediately after NDLS. At Gurgaon morning tea was served. After Gurgaon it was heavy fog and train moved slowly. All the seats were occupied. Near Alwar breakfast was served with bread cutlet. Also in option was south Indian and Non Veg breakfast. Tea was again served. The train continue to run slowly and managed to reach Jaipur at 11:30 AM.

more... journey on 22nd: Train arrived 15 mins before at Jaipur PF-1. I had WL 90 which got confirmed and was allocated C7 coach. Train started moving and immediately snacks was served with sandwich, kachauri, sonpapadi. after 1 hour soup was served with dinner near Alwar consisting of normal non veg and veg thali with ice cream. Train reached on time till Delhi cant but was made to wait for 15 mins near Sarai Rohilla due to train crossing. It finally reached NDLS PF-1 by 11:15 PM.
Some observations:
1. When boarding at NDLS avoid getting from Pharganj side as their is lot of traffic jam at the car entrance. You may end up missing your train
2. toilet locks are mostly broken in all the coaches which is quiet shameful
3. Expect a delay of 1 hr in winters/foggy season and plan accordingly. My work got delayed due to late arrival of the train at Jaipur
4. Do not worry if you have got a WL ticket at Jaipur. It is common that WL 90 get confirmed
5. please be wary of change in cancellation charges since Nov. No TDR and no refund 4 hrs before scheduled departure.
6. If waiting at Jaipur, you can very wll use 1A waiting rooms which is quiet convinient
7. Rewari to Alwar has been electrified. It is yet to be operational.
