Was onboard 22692/NZM SBC Rajdhani Express on 17/03/24 from NZM to SC lead by Offlink EDLS WAP7 37485. Was travelling in 1A with my coupe E shared with an Ex CPI MP. Maintenance of the train was Excellent. OBHS cleaned the aisel, corridor, cabins n the toilets at regular intervals. Bedding which was provided was clean n fresh. The train departed RT from NZM but pertaining to the ongoing works enroute was slightly delayed at AGC n GWL.Overtook heavily delayed Jhelum Express at Farah.I slept after GWL. Woke up in the morning morning n saw that we were running early. Late running 12724 was just ahead of us n it was taken care at Kalmeshwar. Arrived NGP early by a few mins n had a slightly delayed dep as Geetanjali Express just departed as we arrived. 2A,3A lunch was loaded at NGP. Post NGP run was okish with many restrictions enroute,...
more... however managed to reach BPQ dot on time. As we arrived NDLS bound Telangana Express departed n NZM bound SBC Rajdhani arrived. Post BPQ it was a mediocre run in SCR SC Divn. Happy that it didn't screw us up. Had few unscheduled halts due to ongoing works. SCR removed few PSRs like 75kmph of Wirur is removed n now trains blast past at 120. Same goes at Ippuguda, 90kmph restriction removed n flat 130kmph clearance is given. Departed KZJ 40mins late, Overtook GKP HYB SPL at Ghanpur n reached SC at 17:40 with a delay of 30mins. Happy that I got a good run, else SC Divn never delays this slot train with less than an hour. Coming to food n catering, it was pathetic. This Raj food was mediocre before n now it's just crap. The standards of catering have scooted down to rags.
