Well personally, i didn't liked the timing. It takes almost 2days btw Patna & Mumbai, rather i would prefer other one which is known as crawler - 13201 , which takes 2N/1D. And reaches Mumbai morning. This way, atleast i can join office around noon. Since, i had family which doesn't want to travel late night hence preponed ticket by a day and booked 12142.
JBP reached late.! And next day, Good Morning BSL before time. It was longtime to connect with Maharashtra. Next halt at Nasik at 10:40AM, IGP at 11:40AM. & next unscheduled halt was before and after Khadavli. Then before, on and after Shahad. At 2pm alighted @Shahad ao as to avoid traffic and long @KYN station.
By 02:30pn reached home and when i checked atatus of train, it reached Kalyan around 30min late. Gossh i took right decision to alight at unscheduled halt. From @IGP we were trailing late running Mahanagri Expess till we reached Mumbai. If there would been OT it would have been memorable.
