I returned from Howrah to CBE (via Katpadi) by this train on 5th May. Booked ticket as soon as it opened 15 days before departure & got 3A ticket for just below 3000 rupees.
Very cool & comfortable. Food, snacks, tea continuosly served. Clean coaches & beddings.
More than half of the seats in my coach was reserved for boarding from BBS. So we all slept wherever we wanted.

late by 2:15 hours at Vijayawada. Picked up, went non-stop and reached Katpadi correct time.
I was sorry to see co-passenger who booked at more than double my ticket amount.
Surprised to see RAC tickets allowed. Some side lower berths had 2 passengers. Great inconvenience for them as well as for the side upper berth passenger after paying high price.

Crossed a big river full of water after Kolaghat station, between HWH and Kharagpur. I request local members to inform name of river.

Re# 1504414-2              
I wanted to capture premium train skipping KGP without touching any platforms like Pune Duronto. But the train stopped here for a few minutes.
However I upload this video for a different reason which is- "Hot 5 puris (luchis) for KoodyTaka(20Rs.) with tasty curry"- you can see these vendors at the end of this video.
I have eaten many times and it is safe. This time I had no chance as they continuosly served food items in the premium train.

Travel SAFE

1. RailFanning does NOT MEAN dangerous pics/videos.
2. Doorplating pics/youtube videos are strictly FORBIDDEN in IRI.
3. Take plenty of food pics and other safe pics.
4. Write human interest narratives to make the pics interesting.
5. Enjoy blogging and travelling SAFELY.

REMEMBER: YOUR LIFE is the most precious thing, NOT RailFanning.

    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...
