For RailFans, the Journey itself is the Destination. - Sreerup Patranabis

Recently I travelled in 12172 Haridwar Mumbai Lokmanya Tilak Terminal AC Superfast Express between Hazrat Nizamuddin and Jhansi. and I would like to share my experience and some tips regarding this train and anyone who is willing to board this train.
🔺Availability- Availability of berths specially in 3A in this train is quit easy. NIzamuddin is under RL quota hai and you will always see a waiting upto RLWL6-RLWL50. You dont need to worry as the confirm chances are upto 99% and current availability always open upto 150 berths from NZM.

In my case a seat was alloted in B1 middle, while B2 was completely empty even after current availability. I contacted the TT and coach attendent they provided me a side lower seat in B2, which was way more comfortable and whole trip passed nicely.
