DOJ: 3rd June 2023
Asli ID se aao Kalka Shatabdi 😂.
Had a Journey in this Old Service while returning from Bhopal to New Delhi after Official Visit. Again Executive Class on Company's Dime.
*➡️ Maintenance: Above Average all things considered, Coach (E1) was REALLY OLD, most likely the first LHB Coach given to Shatabdi in India. Had those old toilet doors which folded...

in the middle. Push Back System wasn't working for most seats. Food Tables had Advertisements of Toilets below them 😂, quite literally an allegory to how NR treats it.
*➡️ Cleanliness: Train was cleaned by OBHS after Journey Started before that they were busy making videos and reels at Rani Kamlapati Station. Toilets were STINKING when I boarded, got cleaned on before Bina Junction but again went pathetic courtesy of Non Sensical Passengers, some didn't even close doors while going to Toilets, truly the most idiotic bunch I had ever seen in a Premium Train.
*➡️ Food: Above Average, Snacks were bad. Although appreciate that they had given Samosa instead of their usual Kachori, but it was bad especially considering we had left Bhopal known for it's food. Dinner was piping hot but mostly tasteless. Train was vibrating like hell to actually be able to enjoy it. Took Snickers from on board seller instead of taking overcooked Gulab Jamun
*➡️ Punctuality: Literally crawled from RKMP to Bhopal. Good Speed till Bina, crawled till Jhansi, Good Speed till Gwalior, got regulated at Morena for good 35 minutes, maintained that delay till New Delhi. It needs a 2 minute halt at Nizamuddin for better crowd management as it leads to too much rush at Platform #1 of New Delhi Railway Station
*➡️ Patronage: Contrary to views of some Geniuses here, it gets almost full from Bhopal Junction. Seats available in current are mostly filled on board or at Bina Junction (surprisingly for some people). Bina Junction gave 7 Seats in Current booking in Executive Class. As usual Train half empties out at Gwalior. Gwalior provides decent passengers for New Delhi, remaining seats get filled at Agra. Lots of Foreigners boarding from Agra and passengers from Agra are provided dinner by Catering Guys.

Travel SAFE

1. RailFanning does NOT MEAN dangerous pics/videos.
2. Doorplating pics/youtube videos are strictly FORBIDDEN in IRI.
3. Take plenty of food pics and other safe pics.
4. Write human interest narratives to make the pics interesting.
5. Enjoy blogging and travelling SAFELY.

REMEMBER: YOUR LIFE is the most precious thing, NOT RailFanning.

    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...
