Yep, really shocked and surprised it was offered LHB coaches 😂😂 like OMG !! But being a Special Train the Punctuality of this train will be questionable because of other normal trains being given first preferences in Section Controlling hope Vasco-Patna itself doesn't overtake this one !! But Overall Happy a Summer Special train being run !!

VSG CDO has lot of LHB coaches now. Most probably same rake will be used to convert VSG YPR express from June.

Useful
Why was 12741 rescheduled today (any idea) and left more than an hour late as the "Where is my Train" app shows, I don't know if it really left or still waiting at the station, sometimes displays wrong info when train is rescheduled.

Overall Good run given to 12741 despite being departed late from source, somehow maintained the lateness to the same extent to that of it departed. Although slacks were there could have covered up easily till Panvel but slowed down after Ratnagiri and steady recovery from PNVL to PNBE.
