Train departed at 23:55 from Kolkata Chitpur on 31/05/2011. Condition of coaches pretty poor. Many fans are not working and naked wires are sticking out in place of switchboards, jugaad done with insulating tapes. Only one AC coach present, no idea about it's condition. Coach S7 was horrific, like the sleeper coaches of old - no net bags or other fittings.
Getting a feeling that I should have stuck with RAC in Darjeeling Mail or Padatik. Just hoping it reaches by ten in the morning. Hoping it stays superfast because special it certainly is not!
