This trip happened on 1st feb 2014 but posting only now because I was busy-
Had booked a FC ticket in this train from SBC to SMET and got W/L 4, which later confirmed during charting and allotted F1, B. I was the only person in the cabin as there were three vacant berths and stayed the same way until SMET.
Rchd SBC @ 22:15 and entered PF #9 and saw the TV showing Arrivals and Departures. Everything was late except 56234, which came in at 22:30 followed by Shtb @ 22:35. The

only on-time Dep. was that of 12658 MAS MAIL which left @ 22:40 from PF1. PF4 had rake of ERs intercity and seems like PF4 is becoming its regular. 12692 was expected on PF1 at 23:45, 11013 @ 23:30 on PF2. Janshatabdi was also expected to arrive on PF8 @ 23:05 hrs and KK exp expected on PF3 @ 00:00 hrs. Meanwhile, 16594's rake was brought to PF8 @ 22:30 and it left at 22:50 with a KJM Alco(couldn't see the exact type). Our train was hauled by a KJM Alco as well(WDM-3A #offlink ).
Our coach was 1980 make coach and smelt of paint(must have been recently POHed). The doors couldn't be opened and hence one of the Emergency windows was broken open! A person went inside and opened the doors and lights were also switched on. Purchased bedroll by Paying Rs30. Train left as soon as JShtb came in. From here, nothing much to report. Train rchd SMET @ 4:55 and got down and exited the station. 16202 was on PF #2.
Thanks for reading a little lengthy report. Feedback appreciated :)
