Hello My IRI geeks!!
This is a horrible train to travel on, with reference to the gentry per se. I went to see off my wife at New Delhi station on 10/11/12, booked a 3AC [confirmed ticket], and for a moment I thought, I was standing on the entrance of a IInd class coach without any reservation. Whaat a nightmare, I had. It took me nearly 10 mins to get my foothold on the coach, now you can understand my anxiety, as the scheduled stoppage time of this train is of 15 mins. As a result, I lost my cool, my temper and started to push people I had to, just to get her inside, the train, which was hopelessly...
more... suffocated!!! One should watch out for the sleeper classes of this train, if one has to consider this train as a travel option, yes a a pure necessary evil, wish I could take a photo of my plight, and post it here!!
Therefore, please consider this as my humble request to my all respective IRI friends, avoid travelling on this train and choose it as the laaast possible option for travelling with it, because, if you have, you are in for a one hell of nightmare.
Thanks & Regards for taking your time for reading my story.
