I am not sure Chhabra Ji. Maybe it is true or maybe it was just to make fun of the timings of the train. It takes about 4hrs just to cover Delhi...this is amazing.

Shri Jitesh ji*: Jan 14 (08:20PM)
A lot of trains is there where these ExCeSsIvEly excessive durations are given. I have tried a lot to understand but fail to.
Just to report the train (on) right time (or before) on the terminating stations, Railways is stealing millions of Man-Hours. In between BUFFER is further contributing.
Thanks !

Manish ji,
You are recollecting rightly. And one more citation is Blog Entry No. 3036 where the blogger enjoyed this train with his GF because he had got much more time to spend with her Company, in blessings from this Train.
Thanks!

There can be many reasons for buffer time
eg. signal failure at any point during journey
Locomotive failure
OHE failure
speed restrictions
unscheduled...
more...
halt at intermediate station allowing faster trains to pass through
and many more ...
A few months back while I was travelling by a train it was delayed by half an hour
The reason ?
It was shocking and unbelievable ...
A man had committed suicide travelling by general compartment.
It was noticed only the next day .
Not to suggest that such things are common but this was truly not imaginable even by die hard pessimists
Not all reasons can be documented but yes ...
a travelling time of 2 hrs for 10 kms distance is streching things a bit too far
