Train is shunted on Delhi Junction Platform at 6 AM only.
Windows are dusty, Seats are Manageable enough. You'd need a Deodrant to be able to enter Washrooms. Saw Purnagiri Jan Shatabdi leaving at 06:30 AM.
At any day you'd find 50+Seats empty in AC Chair Car and 220+ Seats empty in Normal Chair Car. Although you won't find many

of them empty due to Unauthorised Passengers in Normal Chair Car. TTE's are strict on unauthorised people boarding in intermediate Stations.
It's truly the Bread and Butter of Vendors of Gajraula Junction. Has a good 50 minute halt there (AC gets turned off there due to reversal). Tried some Chhole (Cold) Bhature (fresh) and Pakoras (freshly taken out of Kadhai with Excellent Green Chutney). Had ample time to explore the Station.
Samosa, Tea, Rabdi, Chips, Cold Drinks etc are sold by Staff On Board.
This route needs Normal Intercity running on Opposite timing of this Jan Shatabdi.
Reached Bijnor on time.
Added some extra photos of Delhi Junction and Gajraula Junction.

a train service introduced or extended, after that whether cleanliness is there or service is punctual no one would care.
And even People who protest for halts barely protest for Punctuality, Speed or Cleanliness.
As I've said repeatedly, we as Railfans are the only ones caring about Average Speeds and Overtakes. Normal People don't even think about this stuff when they should.
