DOJ: 17th October 2023
Train is shunted on Delhi Junction Platform at 6 AM only.
Windows are dusty, Seats are Manageable enough. You'd need a Deodrant to be able to enter Washrooms. Saw Purnagiri Jan Shatabdi leaving at 06:30 AM.
At any day you'd find 50+Seats empty in AC Chair Car and 220+ Seats empty in Normal Chair Car. Although you won't find many

of them empty due to Unauthorised Passengers in Normal Chair Car. TTE's are strict on unauthorised people boarding in intermediate Stations.
It's truly the Bread and Butter of Vendors of Gajraula Junction. Has a good 50 minute halt there (AC gets turned off there due to reversal). Tried some Chhole (Cold) Bhature (fresh) and Pakoras (freshly taken out of Kadhai with Excellent Green Chutney). Had ample time to explore the Station.
Samosa, Tea, Rabdi, Chips, Cold Drinks etc are sold by Staff On Board.
This route needs Normal Intercity running on Opposite timing of this Jan Shatabdi.
Reached Bijnor on time.
Added some extra photos of Delhi Junction and Gajraula Junction.

Yep, No problem in paying 224 for 2 hrs, but give the facilities. You can't take the price & then tell the customer that ACs are not working & how come all ACs except one stop working at same time? But surprisingly the ACs in recliner area works..

Re# 5856668-21              
I'll have a full blown fight if I ever get treated like that. I don't mind paying extra but even after paying extra if service isn't there, then they'll be in big trouble because I'd make it my sincere intent to make them suffer.
I'm quite vindictive that way, therefore it's good that I normally don't go there ๐Ÿ˜‚

Agree:Thanks
I don't think that it is a vindictive behavior. That is a very justified anger and being a lawyer/frequent traveler, I hope you make them regret it!
Train catering and on-boarding services have absolutely gone down the drain while fares have only crept up. Post COVID almost every train service has been trashed and the passengers been taken for granted...

    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...
