Entry# 334693                  
Traveled by this train on sunday by C1-16. First we thought to go VSKP station to catch this train. But i told my brother to get in at DVD because that's the nearest station to me. But he insisted me to take ticket from VSKP only, then i booked it WL/Available ticket on Friday.
On sunday morning we wake up little late, sure we will miss train if we go to VSKP. Then we decided to go DVD. Reached DVD at 7:38. By the time we arrived there the announcement was done. Train arrived at PF#1 7:40 sharp. Entered the coach, no plug points at seats, coach was not maintained properly. The seats are damaged little bit, push back not working for many seats. AC also not that comfortable but as its winter it fine only. This...

train having 19 stops between VSKP-BZA. People calling it as past passenger. But when it comes to speed its running like a EMU. WAP4 accelerating like a hell...I think it is maintained that 100 mark constantly. Right time to every every station upto DWP. There we stopped for giving side to late running 15630/GHY-MAS express. Stopped there for 15 min, then started and again stopped at RJY outer...Finally reached at RJY with 30 min late. From there it slowed down until TDD reaches almost 50 min late there. In between stooped at NDD to detach its link to narsapur. From TDD again it started blasting. Reached BZA outer at 13:35. Stopped there for 5 min. Finally reached PF#4 AT BZA 13:50 mean 15 min early. Overall the running was good. Bathroom are ok. But train was very old.

Re# 334693-2                  
great one!!
obvious, this one touches max to 105kph in some section though its called a Fast Passenger.
Interestingly, the train was late at RJY n reached BZA 15mins, early, clearly shows the slack covered in ample time with decent speed.

7 hours to reach BZA is too high. It's good between VSKP and RJY.
Great, it managed to reach early @ BZA.
