Useful:info. Useful
Bus timings to Karaikkudi Junction from Karaikkudi New Bus stand. Only timing based service and they charge Rs.10/- per person. If one doesn't have buses for your train timings, no other option have to take an auto, which they charge rs. 100/- (irrespective of no of passenger). It will take around 10 - 15 minutes from New Bus stand to railway station. If one is coming from Old bus stand, they have to change at new bus stand and take this bus. Auto may charge more for old bus stand.

bus stand, one can take bus towards Pudukottai/Trichy/Thanjavur if one wants to go to places like Chettinad/Kanadukathan, Kottaiyur, Alagappa University. (Again verify with the buses as some may take byepass as well. For eg. Karaikkudi - Trichy 123 AC service.)
.
If one wants to go Kundrakkudi/Pillayarpatti, one has to take bus from Karaikkudi New Bus Stand towards Thirupathur/Dindigul/Madurai and can deboard at these places. Frequency of buses is excellent and they charge around Rs. 15/-.

Great
Please do not stay at Veekay Tourist Home (close to exit of pf 1 Yesvantpur Jn). Its the worst hotel experience we had. When I booked the hotel by checking their site, I found it fine and it is closer to Yesvantpur Jn. When we checked into the room we noticed that there was no intercom to call reception, TV did not had remote and the TV itself was not working.
All night I was bitten by bedbugs and I could hardly sleep. I had rashes on my arms, back, forehead. Next day found that there was no hot water in our room. Checked with reception and they said that we can take bath in another room. That another room was having

smell of cigaretts, liquor. We complained all this to reception but they did not even bother to apologize or give us some sort of discounts. We checked with few others in the hotel and found similar situation. We checked out immediately the next day.
The driver of car that we hired told us that there are some good hotels near to pf 6 of Yesvanpur Jn.

Double Bed Retiring Room is Excellent at this station. It is on PF no 1. It is an AC room (Split AC) with 2 section metal almirah (Different Door for each section) (Inbuilt Locks and has slots for your own lock as well), One table, Two chairs. Washroom is very big and clean. It is on platform, so train announcements can be heard pretty loud and clear inside the room (Which may annoy some people during night stays). They also provides a door Lock and you can use your own lock for door as well. Cleaning is done at around 9 AM. Canteen on PF1 is very close to retiring room.

What to expect when you are about to travel in first class.
While booking I was very excited when I was asked the seat preference and I happily selected a coupe. But, when I arrived at my coach what I saw was shocking, my coach FC1 was a 1997 made sleeper coach converted into a 2×2 chair car.
The seats did not had any table attached to it and in the entire coach there were only 4 charging points near the doors, seats also had levers which are used to adjust the

reclining seat but the lever present just were just for display purpose as it didn't move an inch.
Fare of AC chair car is cheaper than this fake first class.
In terms of comfort Karnavati LHB 2S second sitting is more comfortable than this 2×2 chair car disguised as first class and one can travel at just Rs 180 between Ahmedabad and Mumbai.
At least I am thankful that I didn't get a general compartment in the name of first class which is there in Bandra Surat Intercity.
At least railways should change the seat preference option as whatever asked in the options does not exist in the real life.
God knows what our great Indian railways thinks before doing such act.

    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...
