A HARD DAYS NIGHT
I had a cut journey ticket, in that, I had 2A from BV to LKO and 3A from LKO to GWL. This train, as of this writing, is all ICF and has 1 Second AC and 3 Third AC coaches.

What surprised me is that this train was not converted yet to an LHB version where large number of SL coaches are trimmed in favor of 3A coaches. It had 9 SL coaches in it's ICF form and only 3 3A coaches. So, there was lots of non AC space for folks to move to. But, they just crowded 3A. The worst was when the train had an unscheduled halt at Govindpuri, I guess and lots of folks just barged into the coach. Apart from the single 2A coach, nothing seemed off limits.
