24780/Σ Dehradun-Bhagalpur Express ΣChain

Damn, that run was sick! We finished it in just under 1 hour and 20 minutes, way ahead of schedule!

Kya zaakaas daur, lagbhag 1 ghante 20 minute pahle samay se!

On July 28th, 2023, I traveled from Saharanpur to New Delhi. So apparently, Coca Cola, Pepsi, Maaza, Sprite, Mountain Dew, and all that good stuff have been banned by Ambala Division because they couldn't pass the "Quality Tests" required for a license. Can you believe it? 😂 Instead, they were selling some random 'Mania' products that no one was interested in. Shopkeepers were whining about how they couldn't even sell 10 units of those items. And guess why Coca Cola and Pepsi were stopped? Because the company didn't want to pay the Divisional Officers their "Commission." Can you imagine? Look at the fourth picture, that food stall. The food from Doon Catering was a mixed bag. The dal was thick and flavorless, but the rest of the items were pretty decent. I personally liked the chicken gravy better than the paneer, though. My coach, E2, was practically empty. E1 had a bit more people in it, but coming to Saharanpur was a total waste since there was barely any crowd. I was there since 7PM, for crying out loud. The maintenance was alright, nothing special. The train was up to the usual standards of NR Premium Train. Most passengers got off at Ghaziabad anyway. There was no action at Muzaffarnagar or Meerut. I didn't bother taking any pictures outside the coach since there are already too many floating around.

DOJ 28th July 2023, Saharanpur se New Delhi.
Shayad Coca Cola, Pepsi, Maaza, Sprite, Mountain Dew aise saare drinks ko Ambala Division ne ban kar diya kyunki unhone"Licence" ke liye zaroori "Quality Tests" clear nahi kiye 😂. 'Mania' se kuch products sale pe the par koi nahi khareed raha tha. Dukaandaron ko shikayat thi ki woh un items ki bhi 10 units nahi bech pa rahe the aur Coca Cola Pepsi ke products ko rok diya gaya kyunki company ne Divisional Officers ko "Commission" dene se inkar kar diya. Dekho 4th Pic, Food Stall.
Catering by Doon, Dal bahut moti aur beshwaad tha, baaki sab items kaafi achhe the, Chicken Gravy Paneer se zyada achha tha though.
Mere Coach E2 mein sirf 8 Passengers the. E1 mein thoda zyada occupancy thi. Saharanpur aane ka pura time barbad kar diya, koi bheed hi nahi thi. Main 7 baje se wahaan tha.
Maintenance NR Premium Train Standard ke hisaab se zyada achha tha. Zyadatar passengers sirf Ghaziabad mein utar gaye.
Muzaffarnagar ya Meerut pe koi movement nahi tha.
Bahar wale Coach ki Pics nahi liye kyunki pehle se hi bahut hain.

They have requested for a stoppage at Kamakhya, sir
And for Goda Humsafar in Sheikhpura.....!
.....
And both requests were made through Giriraj Singh, man..😐
Do you think the stoppage will be approved...??
