I boarded Visakhapatnam Bhubaneswar Vande Bharat with Platform ticket. Went to drop by brother travelling to Vijayanagaram. Distance 60km Fare Rs 435 ( catering charge Rs 35) way expensive. When you give halts every 60km and want people to board the train the min fare km and fares should also be kept low. I think min fare km in ACC is 125km. They should change fare structure of ACC class from 50km upto 200km to be competitive with road sector for Normal trains and VB. AC buses charge Rs 2-3 perkm depending on route and bus type. For 200km VB fare is 600 without catering fare which is equivalent to premium AC bus fare.
Executive Chair. The legroom is more or seat pitch in more with 2 step adjustable foot rest, the charging socket with USB pin is given at convenient point. The chairs are not rotated in moving direction and left as it is.
