संपूर्ण क्रान्ति है तो जहां है

We all have a craving for SLB be it 3AC or 2Ac or SL. Before Feb 2011 I used to like LB since higher chances of getting a window seat as there are 7 SLBs kept for RAC , but while booking a ticket in 12826 Jh SK from NDLS to RNC for 26/2/2011, for a change I asked the ECRC at Dakaniya Talav ( small station in KOTA) for a SL.

If you hav a LB there are high chances that you may be asked for exchange of berth by families or ladies. For some the partition gap in SLB.is problematic while sleeping but since I don't sleep much in trains, then I am OK with that. Except berth no. 39, have travelled on all SLBs.
