I reached Hazrat Nizamuddin at 00:35 hrs and saw that the train was shunted out of the platform for it's scheduled cleaning and SM. I thought that the train will depart at it's scheduled time of 05:00 hrs but at it's departure time, it was just shunted at the platform and departed at 05:35 hrs, 35 minutes after it's scheduled time. I slept after the departure as I arrived from Jalandhar via shatabdi and hadn't slept whole night. The train gained a delay of 1 hour as it reached Mathura and gained some more delay as it reached Bharatpur where the Goa Rajdhani overtook us. The delay continued in the next halt SWM. While most of the delay was covered at the next stations KOTA, RTM and BRC, the train was now just 12-15 minutes delayed as it departed from BRC. Some delay was gained as we reached the following stations of BH, ST, VAPI, DRD, BSR and PNVL. I thought that the train will cover it's delay in the night and will depart from Ratnagiri on time or with a minor delay but it departed with a delay of 1:40 hrs from the said station. Then was the time for mighty Konkan route, tunnels, greenery, mountains, rivers, bridges and much more was in front of my eyes as I was gazing through the window. The scenery that I saw in videos until now was in front of my eyes. The delay of more than one hour although not as much as Ratnagiri, was continued in the rest of my journey. After the departure from Udupi, the train gained a decent speed of 100 kmph but staying at this speed was just a matter of few minutes 😔. Now came the station of Nandikoor, the train had an unscheduled halt here and had the same at every single station until MAJN. The reason for the unscheduled halts was 01185 LTT-MAJN special which had some halts between Udupi and Mangaluru while our train was non stop between the said stations. Finally the train arrived MAJN at 17:20 hrs, exactly 1:15 minutes delayed from it's scheduled time. Although, the train didn't had any overtakes other than that of the Goa Rajdhani, it had a lot of unscheduled halts throughout the journey.

Cleanliness - The train was clean as I first boarded and the same was continued in the rest of the journey, my coach A1 was cleaned throughout the journey. The toilets were clean too.

Maintenance - My coach was 2022 manufactured and was maintained nicely. There were no complaints

Please update the TB and SB pics as required.
