So i got a chance again to travel on my favourite train the 12127 Intercity express to pune.Add to icing on the cake is that it got LHB!
So here are my reviews
Punctuality:-By far the average delay of this train is 10-15 mins,which is acceptable.And gets a superb priority throughout the route.The only problem is between Thane to Kalyan as many a times this train gets trolled by 15017 Ksshi express due to x-over.Therrafter Intercity runs like a "King" in Kalyan-Karjat and Lonavala-Pune.
Cleanliness:-Excellent.Rather

i should day Pune division has maintained this train in a very good condition. Toilet was well maintained too.
Comfort:-Many people have complained that LHB non ac chair cars are giving their back a pain! So it would be good option to opt Ac chair car.Same comfort as that of Shatabdis.
Avability:-Just like other trains, purchase the ticket well in advance if travelling on weekends/festival season.Reason being is many people opt this train first for travelling,and the Ac cc in this train gets booked quickly.
Railfanning:-Please opt for General coach.Daily passengers have a "Gundagiri" type on this train as if they own!
Else take deccan.Deccan takes a hell lot of time but good for railfanning.
Any point is Missing/WRONG? please let me know!

Out of curiosity, why is 12127 your favourite over Deccan Express and Indrayani?

Sir,There is a small reason about why i choose Intercity express majority of the timei travel to pune.Intercity is one of the fastest train and it reaches pune at 10 am(or whatsoever delay of 10 mins) allowing me to explore pune city and its nearby areas.The timing of intercity express is such that,it gives a perfect 4-5 hour to explore your favourite places in and around pune.And in return,i choose bus to reach mumbai because mumbai bound intercity gets less preference.Although in future commuting,i will try other express trains too. :)
