Dear Aniket,
I never compare SDAH Duronto with BCT Duronto regarding Food or other amenities. The standard of food of SDAH Duronto is much better than SDAH Rajdhani. The comparison is on the following points
1 BCT Duronto Coaches are well maintained than SDAH Duronto(Which is a fact)
2 BCT Duronto gets 3 Phaser more than WAP-4/4E.Like SDAH Duronto 3 phaser have not been
...
more...
withdrawn from the charge of BCT Duronto.
3 I have travelled in SDAH Duronto many times. The Pantry Staffs of this Duronto told me that this train is now the victim of negligency of ER. If you see the "Condition of the Duronto Rakes(Specially the Pantry Car) you will see the negligence. Thanks and appreciation must be given to the staffs of this SDAH Duronto that they unitedly trying to retain the glory of this train amidst so many obstacles. Passengers cross their limits if there is a bit late in serving food in this Duronto(Incident happened in front of my eyes in 2010,2011 &2014) and began to rebuke the "Pantry Staffs" citing Rajdhani is so good...... this train is this, that etc but the "Pantry Staffs" in spite of so many harsh behaviour keep their smile intact and try to satisfy passengers always and serve them food as per their time which you can't get in Rajdhani.
I travelled in SDAH Rajdhani in 2011 from NDLS to SDAH in 2011, on that very day the train was late by 4 hours. Believe me dinner was served at 00.30 am and no body spent a little word as if the pantry staffs are their boss. In 2014 I travelled in SDAH Duronto this train was also late on that very day by 3 hours but we got dinner within 9 pm. This is SDAH Duronto dear. SDAH Duronto is now just live on the contribution of the staffs of this train.
THE P7 story:
Duronto Staffs told me that though NDLS want to provide P7 for this train but ER don't want P7 to haul this train.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
