Railfans If travelling in this train till NDLS , then after MTJ reach to the left hand side doors/windows.
In this Triple line territory, this train does a parallel run with Legendary Golden Temple Mail (Majority days GT Mail crosses MTJ just 10-15 minutes ahead of AP AC) with continuous overtaking and overtaken by.
This is a brilliant sight to watch both these trains doing kind of race for a long duration of time.
AP
...
more...
AC runs on middle track whereas GT runs left farthest most track.
But in end, sad news is this AP AC is always given preference to cross through NZM and GT Mail is asked to slow down between TKD and OKA.

This train is badly needed to be speeded up between NGP-AGC.
Its running a meager 60kmph on this high speed route of NGP to AGC with just 3 halts. It can easily be speeded up by atleast 30-40minutes.

Andhra Pradesh AC SF Express is a daily train connecting National capital with Visakhapatnam(Largest City in Andhra Pradesh).This train is the only South Indian Non- Rajdhani/Duronto SF train to reach 130kmph mps speed in it's way to Delhi.This serves as an asset to railfanning in stations like asaoti.The shining Lhb AC Bogies with White beast Lallaguda Wap-7 makes it one of the most pretty Trains in IR.The scene of pretty Andhra Pradesh AC SF Express burning tracks and flashing through Stations at mps 130kmph is a fest to eyes of every railfan.This Trains runs with good punctuality.

Really sorry bro..This is not the fastest non Rajdhani or Duronto.The Chennai-Nizamuddin rajdhani and Garibrath share the fastest train of South Indian.I have travelled in AC AP express from AGC-VSKP,there is a huge time slack when compared to other trains and almost every copassengers said that the train was running slower.

If termed on a daily basis(from BZA to NDLS), TN,GT and Kerala are faster than AP AC SF.

heavy slack after GWL to ensure that it follows 12643/12645. That can be improved.

#APACEXPRESS
A)Finally a great news to railfans and people of Andhra Pradesh who are waiting for rescheduled time table with reduced travel time of APAC EXP.
B)#22415 Will depart from VSKP around 22.00PM instead of 08.45am and arrive NDLS arround 6.30Am instead of 19.10PM(Almost runs on timings of Legendary #TamilNaduEXP)
C)#22416 Will depart from NDLS around 19.40PM instead of 06.25Am and
...
more...
arrive VSKP by 05.00am(Day-3) instead of 17.30PM.
With addition of general and sleeper coaches this train is going to be AP SF EXP than AP AC EXP.Will benefit night bound passengers between BZA-VSKP who are running out of seats in long bound trains.
Removal of LINK DAKSHIN will be inevitable from VSKP and full set of train will be running from HYD-SC with old coaches of VSKP link proposed for extention from Kaziper JN to HYD forming a new train all together to reduce load on #12728 #GodavariEXP.

Better food options available on platform than Pantry. Train stops at Vijayawada for lunch, Bhopal for breakfast and Jhansi for lunch. Dinner on day 1 can be picked up from Pantry as Ballarshah doesn't have much options. Pantry food is pricey for about the same quality. Dinner from pantry is good for 2 ppl. My wife and I struggled to finish the food due to the quantity as we bought 2 of them.
