Well you are right. Now 18045 is maintained far better than 12703 in matters of cleanliness. I have experienced it. Punctuality and speed no doubt regarding 12703, but have you checked trains like 12860, 12863, 12810, 12841, 12833 ?These all are legendary trains. Even 12703 get shifted, it will be managed in 3 rakes and that with overnight maintenance. This is the beautiful maintenance

12703 comes in top 5 highest revenue generating trains. And what SCR does, giving LHB rakes in 2024. Not giving atleast one 3A coach. It is still having 3E coaches and that with least maintenance. C'mon you know the beauty of SER with improper TT.Arrival at 10 am departure at 4pm, how?. I have personally experienced SCR maintenance in 12704. Dirty bottle holder. Leg operated tap which was not ready to use, and cosy berth and what not and that too from departure from SC. When I boarded 03 it was maintained better. Even I was expecting this train better then SER trains of my route but, 12704 couldn't come to that standard

Re# 5741912-21              
People have had long discussions on this topic regarding this train because SCR just neglected it in terms of maintenance. It's RSA partner also used to get neglected in the process. Discussions of transferring PM to SRC were also made but some people also did site trains like 18048 which till today have horrible maintenance. The train does travel through Orissa,AP and Karnataka so it does get dirty. I think this is a major issue for trains bound from HWH towards South. Onboard maintenance should be done otherwise people keep assuming that maintenance at origin is not upto mark. Many people in South have that idea of North originating trains like Sanghamitra, Raptisagar, Coro, Dhanbad etc that they are just not well maintained trains. Dhanbad ALLP just becomes horrible by the time it reaches AP. I wish Falcon maintenance was transferred to SER but there is too much skepticism of SER...

with maintenance right now. I don't think SCR will accept as well. Also since it has RSA with a train bound to AP i.e Simhapuri SF, maintenance cannot be compromised. Granted there are shortcomings but folks here won't accept if trains runs ill maintained.

Re# 5741912-22              
Absolutely correct, even 18030 is running on its worst condition. Anything might happen in in future.
Even one more problem is that, due to lack of pit lines, due to which SER currently wont be able to manage 12703. Only TT is matching for SER.
