I traveled on this train on 23rd November, 2011 in FC!
There was a bit of problem with the coupling of II AC Coach and FC coach, which delayed the train by fifteen minutes. Some gas leakage was the trouble, which was fixed. The train was not allowed to go with much speed till it reached Anakapalle. After it crossed Anakapalle, again the gas leaked. The train was halted for a while, and then ran slowly till it reached Rajahmundry. It reached RJY at 12:30, delay by almost an hour!
Then the

train started making up the speed, entered BZA by 3:30, but it was crawling slowly in the outers. It was 16:00 when the train was allowed into the station.
The train started at BZA at 16:15, and never looked back! First, it crossed HYB-HWH East Coast Express, the Kondapalle. After that, the train never went beyond 70 KMPH! It rocked and rolled till it reached Kazipet by 7:00 PM! The train was halted for about twenty minutes. Then, it went by good speed, to reach SC at 09:45PM!
Near Ghatkesar, the train passed an unknown complete AC train, I seriously believe its Rajadhani cause that day all Delhi bound trains from SC were badly delayed due to some technical issues!
Food was served at RJY, it was okay-ish. No order was taken for dinner, I bought a Biryani pack for rs 50 after the train left Kazipet!

I've captured many videos, around 100 MB, but I have semester exams right ahead! Expect them somewhere around Chrismas:)

My demands for this train:
-A whole new LHB coached rake.
-Total of four engines, two Diesel ons and two Electric ones (WCAM), two at each end, so that this train will not be a burden to any of the controversial stations like VSKP.
This is a special train, should go to all possible stations, like VSKP. I'm sure ECoR will cry since it

needs an extra Engine, for entering VSKP. Similarly, same might be the reason for this train to avoid HWH.
This is what I feel:).

I'm sure the toilets were NOT jammed!
They might have not been released, its a new technology, which no one might have known!
No unidentified persons will roam in your coach! Its a duronto, you cannot expect many strangers to get into your train!

    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...
