Best train between CNB & NDLS. Travelled 2 times in 3A on 28/11 & 1/12.
1. RCF coaches with bio toilets. one of the best & cleanest ac coaches, i have ever seen. Functional charging points on both sides.
2. Extremely clean bed rolls. Most important thing, hand towel was a part of all the bedrolls. Never seen this in any SF train till now while travelling in many zones like WR/CR/KR/WCR/NR. On all previous occasions, Attendants were allways reluctant to give hand towels. U need to ask at least 3 times to

get it that too with a caveat that if any spot is found, it will not be taken back and the cost has to be reimbursed.
3. Bang on time on both occasions. Reached NDLS 5 min early.
4. Experienced some jerks in B-1while running at MPS though it was fantastic in B-4.
5. on 28/11/14, in 12452, B-1 had 24 births booked under HO quota, that i think is too much. I felt like travelling in VIP train having much less quota for gen public. Same thing was there in 12451, A-1, 11-12 births under HO quota.

It was Dec 20.2015
I reached ndls well before time(0600), to know that it was running 2hrs 10min late. Dense fog,extremely chilly morning. I was frustrated. Even being a train enthusiast i was cursing myself to choose Goa Smprk Kranti as an option to reach BRC.
Train left ndls at around 0830 hrs, halt at NZM 10mins. But as it departed from NZM, it started cruising at around 105,110kph. I started enjoying, this was not the end;

halted at MTJ just for 3 seconds and again BRC WAP5 got on to its duty. Bannng......it was simply running..as if it wanted to prove me its worth!!
BTE was left stunned, so was SWM. It took rest at Kota for 15 mins, it was delayed by 55 mins at kota. It slowed down at RTL but kept on moving on the loop line and skipped it.
Next halt was somewhere between Nagda and Dahod for 10 mins. Finally, it pulled into BRC 10mins before time!!
Travel time was same as that of BCT Rajdhani!!
My best travel experience as far as speed is concerned.
Pantry- only Tomato soup was upto the mark. Rest i managed from Kota(some snacks).
Love this train.

This train (MDU RMM) is kept on the Madurai platform way before the departure time of 12:40, so if you come early (~1 hour before departure), you can get a nice window seat, and try getting a seat to your left (direction MDU RMM) to avoid the sun. The train will be quite packed by the time it departs Madurai, and majority of the passengers get down at station PMK. And after station RMD, this train runs quite empty.
Once the train approaches the final phase of it's journey (way before the pamban bridge), you can spot the sea far away on both the sides of the train, and as the train progresses, you can notice the sea shore

getting closer and closer towards you. Just before the train enters the bridge, you can spot many peacocks on the side of the tracks. Once you enter the bridge, (track speed limit: 15 kmph), if you look down, you can notice the sea water gushing with pace in a certain direction, and if you focus fully down, it's almost scary / thrilling at the same time ... makes you wonder how in the world did they construct the bridge in the middle of sea. You also have a wonderful view of sea all around. Even after you cross the bridge, before arriving at RMM, the sorroundings would be very pleasant with white beach sand dunes/palm trees/coconut trees... See the attached pics. You almost feel like you're strolling on a beach, but you're on a 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...
