Travelled with this train yesterday and reached dadar today morning.
1. Todays rake was running with reverse CC as all AC coaches were in last when departed from EGMORE. When asked coach attendant that whether rakes have been reversed , they said only one rake is having this composition and this happened during Jalikattu bandh in Salem. The train took different route to reach Salem and inthe way rake got reversed. TTE said they are clueless how to rectify this now :-).
2. Train has ample slack time for the whole jouney....
more... Inspite of reaching Guntakaal 1 hour late, reached Sholapur bang on time and Dadar 15 mins before time.
3. Electrification for whole jouney will take lot of time. No work going on beyond gulbarga upto sholapur.
4. few stretches beyond gulbarga, somewhere near to Dudhani...Train runs on single line...
5. Chennai-MUM sector desperately needs duronto type train.
