i woke up at 3am, nothing to do i decided to doorplate as i love to see the outskits of any metropolitin{local stations&stuff}. it was constantly doing 100kmph.after brutally overtake of some train,it skipped santragachi at 0330 hrs, now it was running at 40-60kmph as hwh arrived at 0355 hrs,on platform 22. i took some snaps and saw mas hwh mail/ cormandal{not sure as it has rake sharing} coming on other platform.
speed was good, train was always running right time,cleaning was nice,
catering was good{price seemed high though}. thali contained 2 paratha,...

rice,pickle, paneer curry, aaloo choola,dal. sabji and dal quantity was so large that i had to eat it sepratly. paneer curry was tasty.
i just love this train,ive travelled in this train on either side{ie hwh 4times and mumbai 2 times} from bsp. i love its catering,speed,prefrerence,and most importently less stoppages. also i feel that its easy to get reservation{atleast in ac,can't say about sleeper}. just hope for the newer ac coaches,nd everything will be good.
its the best train between the 2 stations,geetanjali got ruined by the local MLAs.
