Came to the parcel office for enquiry about transportation of a Scooty and to drop a friend traveling in Vistadome Coach of Deccan Express.
Did a little Railfanning.
Pictures taken from Platforms 1, 3 and 4 ЁЯШВ
At that time it was the only train standing in the entire station (before 2:30 P.M.)
The...
more... Vistadome Coach in this one is FAR BETTER and FAR Comfortable than the Vistadome Coach of Deccan Queen. The height of door is also adequate for long people and the gallery in the end has adequate fitting to place stuff while clicking pictures (absent from Deccan Queen Vistadome Coach "Prakriti"). Toilet is also relatively spacious.
Seats are more wide and seat numbering is less confusing. I'd prefer this one over Deccan Queen Vistadome Coach "Prakriti".
The Coaches don't open till 2:35 PM. I saw people waiting for them to open since 1:30 PM (the time I reached there). Train was full, according to the vendor there it always goes full, many last minute travelers too.
People getting confused as there's no Coach board for D1 and the coach of Vistadome is EV1 but PRS mentions it as E1 only. Saw the tickets myself and guided a few passengers.
It blocks the Platform for a long time. Perhaps after completion of works at Hadapsar, it can be extended there.
