First AC se jyada iss train ko pantry car lagana jaruri hai.
Lekin abhi nahi ho sakta hai kyunki isse VSG to GTL 4 coaches of KCG slip lagte hai toh vaha total 23 coach rake ban jata hai.

I've noticed that the composition for 12704 and 12703 don't seem to fit the norm. Ideally 12704 runs with CC -( ENG - EOG -GEN -H1- A1- A2- B1 - B2 -B3 - B4 -B5 -B6 - B7 - B8 - PC - S1 - S2 - S3 - S4 - S5 - S6 GEN - SLR - HCPV), undergoes Reversal at VSKP and continues to HWH. But 12703 runs with reverse composition as mentioned above, starting from HWH i.e S6 is at the start, when it should be the reverse .I've checked official sites and it seems like this is infact the case. Can anyone explain what is going on here? So does SRC CDO rearrange these coaches to be in this order? I've seen similar patterns happen to Chennai Mail and Coromandel, but not for SMVB HWH SF. I've want to confirm a lot of thoughts regarding SER and...

the way it handles things but wanted to confirm what's going on before I express them.

This train should be in SER's top priority list for LHB conversion in the next financial year i.e. 2024-25 as if I'm not wrong as of now it's SER's longest distance covering ICF train. The present ICF rakes are in bad condition also this train needs a Pantry car and more coaches too.
Full 22 coach LHB rake should be given to this train. Hope SER successfully gets SCR and SWR to agree to cancel the slip and LHBfy this always full running train.

Yes . It is highly desirable to make this train LHB fied.
1. It has a Link of 4 coaches from Hyderabad which are attached to this train at GTL.
2. An individual train should be run between HYB and VSG to remove this Link
3. It should be made a daily.
