Ok so here it is-
Travelled in the so Called ER King for the first time ever. It didn't disappoint but most of the time I felt I wasn't travelling in such a premier train.
WiFi facility given is just a gimmick. Most of the time it doesn't work & when it does the speed is very slow. You are better off with a data connection.
Food

quality is poor. Paranthas weren't cooked well (kachhe the) & the paneer sabzi was tasteless.
Jeera Fried Rice was much better though.

Re# 1501358-70              
Comparisons with Patna Raj-
Both are the premier trains of their respective divisions with Patna Rajdhani being ISO certified & it edges out on most fronts.
-The food provided in PNBE Raj is of way better quality & is tastier than Howrah Rajdhani. Bread provided in breakfast wasn't fresh(Taaza nahi tha, 1-2din pehle ka tha) ; Paranthas weren't cooked well (Dono kachhe the) & the paneer sabzi was tasteless in HWH Raj, while the case is completely opposite in PNBE Raj. No such problems exist there.

-Compartments of PNBE Raj are much more cleaner although this can be attributed to it being ISO certified.
-Yeah It did reach 9min BT at NDLS but I hardly felt that it was touching MPS. Hardly 4-5 times I could feel it touching MPS (mostly speed was around 110—120) but at whatever speed it was running, it did maintain it perfectly. In case of Patna Raj, I have noticed it many times touching MPS & also maintaining its speed perfectly (This point can be irrelevant for many).
-Coach attendants preferred not to listen to passengers' words. I asked them for the sheets & towel as I didn't get them (only had pillow & blanket) but they didn't provide me. In PNBE Raj, the staff is much more friendly.
Despite of these few discrepancies, I had a great time travelling in it. I look forward to travel in it again but only when I don't get a seat in Patna Rajdhani. Patna Rajdhani remains my Favorite Rajdhani & the de facto train along with Vikramshila Express.

1thing I couldn't get is why it was made to trail Kumbha Express throughout till MGS. 12369 arrived around 25 min late at Patna & departed just before HWH Raj was entering PF4 but still it got preference & reached MGS before HWH Raj.

3. Take plenty of food pics and other safe pics.
4. Write human interest narratives to make the pics interesting.
5. Enjoy blogging and travelling SAFELY.

REMEMBER: YOUR LIFE is the most precious thing, NOT RailFanning.

    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...
