In fact ironically the train runs at its best when it is late !!!!.........VSKP-BZA or BZA-MAS stretches where it usually takes lot of time, the train manages to run with as good speed of other superfast trains despite so many halts.
There are occasions when train has been late by almost 3, 3.5 hours yet has reached its destination on time, just indicating how much slack time it has got.
