Had a Personal Journey on 8th February 2024 till Bhopal.
Yeh South ki train hai, isme emergency ke liye Hathoda 🔨 rehta hai 😂.
Thursday Night in Kerala Express till Bhopal. Booked in this because I was getting Side Upper in Shaan E Bhopal Express despite 7 seats available in 2A at the time of booking.
Major Passengers boarding till Bhopal, good Boarding from
...
more...
Agra and Mathura for Bhopal.
My Coach A2 was almost filled with passengers traveling to Bhopal or Passengers Boarding From Bhopal.
Despite having 2022 Coaches, Maintenance was basic minimum required for survival. Not comfortable enough to travel to Trivandrum. Which was visible in Bookings in 2A, barely 7-8 Passengers traveling to Kerala in both Coaches from New Delhi, 3 of them Traveling till Trivandrum. All other major booking from Bhopal and Agra.
Got regulated heavily for more than 20 minutes before reaching Mathura and Bina Junction. Doesn't have much priority to speak of. Despite departing Bina Junction at 05:15 AM, reached Bhopal Junction Outer at 06:20 AM- Total Non Stop Run. Closely followed by Karnataka Express.
Pantry Car is virtually Non Existent. All the Vendors were serving was Chicken/Egg/Veg Biryani, water guy barely came once or twice. I had purchased everything from New Delhi only before boarding.

Re# 5967174-9              
After introduction of few VB in Delhi route I think it got slowed down further as compared to the original TT which was formulated during zero based time tabling. What I have heard is that the Kerala based passenger associations in Delhi wanted a train with evening departure from Delhi since all trains running from Delhi towards KL were all departing in morning. Mangala 5:40am, Rajdhani 6:15am, Millenium exp also morning dep. This demand was pending for a long time. Moreover it was a good opportunity for NR to reduce the stabling time in NDLS earlier which was almost 20 hrs. So it worked well for them as well. Train now is there for 8-9 hours only

What about PF placement, shunting into pitline which consumes an hour. if the incoming reaches even 1hr late then it has to rescheduled by 1hr. It will be very difficult in winters.

Re# 5967174-11              
This was my First time traveling in this one as I didn't find it's old slot suitable enough.
Normally went for Trivandrum Rajdhani.
But I cannot think about traveling for so long in 2A of this train. Even though both Coaches were 2022 made in rake of my traveling day.
Both Side Berths have Common Long Walkway Curtains like the ones used for Opposite
...
more...
Side Where 4 Berths lie. No seperate Curtains for Each Side Berth.
Washrooms are clean but barely manageable Maintainence wise, dustbin below Washbasin in Toilets keeps opening during MPS run of train.
Common Dustbins near Doors are sealed shut through Nuts and Bolts. Dustbins below Common Washbasin near Doors were sealed shut through plastic, I was forced to throw my garbage out of train door.
Pantry Car doesn't have much options to offer, no Premix Tea available, No thali available.
The only reason I went for this train was availability and allocation of Side Lower Berth.

Sabari Express so called "Joker of Both SCR and SR". Such a great train of IR which runs daily between the City of Nizams and Gods own country by covering a dist of 1555km and one of the highest revenue generating trains of both the zone's but still the "train is ICF", Good point about this train is It literally cant survive without RSA. Its always a "inky pinky ponky" for both zones for making it LHB because of ODD arrival at its Home station. Even

the officials are Least bothered for this train.
If Both zones really have a concern regarding the train why arent they changing its timings and schedule and arrange a suitable RSA. no no one is cared about it, the reason for low occupancy of SC TPTY padmavathi is just because of its worst OEM done after the sabari returning from TVC, RSA should be reasonable. Lets hope that atleast in this year 2024 It will get LHB.
