I have travelled in this train on 24th. Boarded at KCG WAG7 is the LOCO. As usual it started at around 10:50pm next schedule stop is at Sitaphalmandi but it did not stopped there and stopped at mettuguda railway bridge there driver tried to push back but not possible it seems hence stayed there for more than 45mins. Later in S1 few people came told us that they were supposed to board at sitaphalmandi as the train did not stop there there is local train which took the passengers of this premium special and stopped near our train i think 1km far. They took their luggages walked on the tracks and boarded this train i don't know how many people got this train. Finally started and reached BZA at around 6:15am where Ratnachal started. After loco got reversed we had line clearance signal was given but train did not start hence...
more... signal was taken. Later came to know problem in break pressure system hence stayed till 7:25am where MAS mail and Prashanthi left. Finally reached SLO at 11:15pm. Our travelling time became 12hours instead of 8hours than the schedule. What a bad experience with premium special. I came that some passengers purchased ticket for Rs.1300/- for this type of premium service. In such cases railway board should repay excess money they collected for premium services. This should be taken as serious issue paying more and getting lesser services is bad for the railways.
