I have travelled to & fro in this train few days back in Third AC and got Upper and Side Upper berth in my journey.
******************************************
1) Maintaining good timelines.(Onwards journey arrived vskp at 06:25 and in Return journey arrived SC JN at 08:30 by overtaking GR at outskirts).
*********************************************
2)

Few coaches are very old and rest are good.
*********************************************
3) Private vendors are selling Biryani’s and Water Bottles in the train(So don't worry if you had boarded this with empty stomach.
********************************************
4) Both the directions WAP 4 in my journey
********************************************
5) Thanks to SCR as they running this train with highest priority. Prestigious trains like TN,GR,Charimnar are stopped aside given a way to this train. As per knowledge One day it will also over Godavari express for sure, by any chance if godavari express runs 20-30 mins late (Waiting for that D day)
*******************************************
5) Majority people travelling in my coach are Software employees
********************************************
6)As per my knowledge this train should with constant speed through the journey may be at 75-85 KM/HR... but this train suddenly picks up to max speed 110-120 KM/HR and again after some time the speed gets dropped to min speed 10-20 KM/HR(This happened many times may be 20-30 times).
********************************************
7)Also I felt like my coach getting Tilted by around 20 to 30 degrees when travelling at max speed and I got little scared... Is this as expected in High Speed train?

Thanks for Short Trip Report.
22204 SC VSKP Duronto WIll never Overtake 12728 Godavari Express.Godavari Has 1 hour slack for the last leg of the journey(AKP-VSKP).
so even if it is running late,the train will any how reach VSKP before 6 AM. That Day will Never Come.
BTW,that's Grandtrunk Express, not Tamilnadu.
GT

Leaves BZA Before Duronto. Where as TN Leaves BZA after 4 AM.
22203 Overtakes GT,VSKP Garibrath, NED weekly trains, Charminar n Simahapuri(if they are running late) between BZA-SC.
