Cleaning Done).
.
Heavy Speed Up Possible in SR/SCR/CR , During my Journey We halted at Yaddgir station for 55/60mins(we were ruuning 30/35mins before) , NCJ CSTM 16340 OT us Here and After that we departed in 20mins still we Reached At Gulbarga only 2mins late and 3mins before at Solapur.
.
Train is Good to travel but same as AC Express , Dont Expect anything Special in "Humsafar brand", CCTV , Display Indicators Boards are exception.

Boarding point:-Guntakal junction
Destination:-Panvel junction
My first travel on "Humsafar" express.And it didnt disappointed me though.
Here are my thoughts about this train.
What's
...

new about humsafar?
Equipped with cctv cameras,more space for sleeping,hooks are provided for luggage security,etc.However,Curtains have been removed and there were no coffee vending machine.
Cleanliness:-Excellent.Being "Poor chariots" train (U can also say upgraded version of garibrath). Cleaning was regularly done and OBHS cleaned the toilet at solapur.Even the toilets were clean throughout the day.
Punctuality:-A good amount of slack having from Chennai to Pune.At Guntakal it was late by 50 mins,Gulbarga at 10 mins,Solapur at 10 mins,Pune at 51 mins to arriving panvel at 10 mins late only.The train was running late by 1 hour most of the time.
Food:-Food is very good but its "Fare" disappointed me.For lunch u get Veg thali comprising 2 roti,Rice,Dal,Ice cream, Paneer,Mixed vegetable etc at a cost of "155".
Avability:-Even if u book 10-12 days earlier u will get a cnf berth.Just make sure how much seat is avaible and Then book.
Any point is missing/Wrong or U wanna add plss comment :)

If Pune to Ahmedabad is WL / less number available, book Solapur to Ahmedabad. If berths vacant (high probability), it costs cheaper as well. By booking from Solapur, you may even save Rs 250 to 412 as compared to ticket from Pune as dynamic fare applied from Pune is quite high and that applied from Solapur can be 0 or 162 (will increase as berths get booked).

Food onboard has improved massively, for lunch 3 puris, paneer mutter, mix vegetable, dal, rice and pickle is served which costs ₹100. For snacks they have pasta as well for ₹50; and while it wasn’t exactly very good, the sheer idea of serving pax something different is pleasing!

Re# 3185227-1              
This train has a PC, so veg thali is defined to be sold at Rs 50, then why 100? Trains which have pantry car hav to follow IRCTC menu.

I too had similar experience while traveling by 22475 last month. The similar dishes were given for the meal and Rs 100 charged. I then thought it had paneer in it, so it could be classified as 'special' veg meal. The food was very good and worth Rs 100

Yes paneer make the dish so called 'special thali' and they think they are liable to charge any amount for that 'special thali'. Anyway 100 rs does not matter unless and until the taste and quantity of food is satisfactory.

To be fair, I don’t mind being charged ₹100 for a meal because you can’t get a decent meal for that amount anywhere else; even the food that we order from E-catering sevices costs more than that. But the main question here is of hygiene and quality; which was good!

Re# 3185227-5              
You are right. However, in 22475's case the Pantry is under contract and therefore cant be subsidized by IR/IRCTC. Any contractor would find it difficult to serve a meal at Rs 50 with the kind of prices of raw materials today without compromising on quality/quantity.

I’ve seen way worse food on premium trains than this and so I’m happy to get something good for ₹100. Even the snacks for which they usually overcharge, were pretty decent

Yes surely you can! The pantry contract is for both UP and DN trains so you can enjoy the same kind of food in 22920 as well
