Dad was informed about this trip on Saturday, 5 August. (Just 6 days before trip). Tickets fare and expenses will be reimbursed by HCPL.
Reporting time at venue is evening 5pm in the previous day i.e Thursday, 10 August.
.
I checked the Availability in the direct train weekly 12938 / Gandhidham Garbha Express. It was heavily waiting for Gaya-Vadodara quota :
1) RLWL135/WL120 in SLeeper
2) RLWL35/WL20 in 3AC
3) RLWL17/WL10 in 3AC
4) GNWL10/WL3 in 2AC (for Asansol- Ahmadabad quota)
5) RAC14/RAC12 in 2AC (for Asansol- Ahmadabad quota)
6) GNWL58/WL19 in SLeeper (for Asansol- Ahmadabad quota)
7) PQWL16/WL11 in 3ac (Hwh/ASN- Vadodara quota)
8) PQWL 47/WL28 in SL (Hwh/ASN- Vadodara quota)
12938 Garbha Express reaching Vadodara on Wednesday morning itself (1 day before reporting date). And it passes via Agra (ie. Just around 200 km from Delhi).
Hence I thought of utilizing this extra one day by making trip via Delhi in Rajdhani.
