This train is not even worthy of its name. I traveled from NZM to MAS on 4th july, 2012. First of all, its been long time since I saw train coaches literally decapitated. It didnt even have proper charging points, just some old 2-pin points which were useless for most of the people having 3 pin chargers.

And the food was simply horrible, with rotten salad and curd. There was even a minor tussle between one of the passenger and the catering incharge. The salad was rotten and curd was smelly.

Rest of the food was equally dismal if not rotten.

Attendant's attitude was like if he was doing us a favor for giving us the rotten food. And to top it all, in the end, he made rounds collecting tips like he was collecting hafta. I carry very litle cash and only had 20/- change, but he kept asking for more with a dhamki like attitude.

All in all, it was a horrible journey. I traveled from NZM-SC duranto 4 weeks back and it was pretty good. I hope NZM-MAS duranto would be good but this was simply horrible.

I would suppose TN express and duranto would be better for this route.

Let NR hand over this train to SR when it gets LHBs. Then the services will automatically improve.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
