1 opted for sdah rph superfast intercity
2 pretty vacant train. almost 80% vacant. easy to get window seat
3 train punctual. less crowded. overtook hwh suri hool express at khana jn. did not undergo any overtakings

reached bhp 10 mins late. short rake but nice speed. after reaching found the museum remains closed on thursdays and wednesdays :(
5 for return opted for bhp hwh kavi guru. nice patronage. the train when began ran with 80% vacancy but now was 90% occupied with less than 10% vacancy
6 tried jan ahaar. display board showed rs.54 for chicken curry rice. but with taxes ended up at rs.69. not that bad. less quantity. avg quality but still better than untrusted dhabas.
7 kaviguru came late, left late and was through out late
8 reached bdc 40 mins late. took bdc nh local to nh and then nh sdah local to bnxr. a nice chain for passengers intending to reach sdah instead of hwh
9 #sbgloop electrification going on. poles erected. even wires placed near bhp. still will take another 6 months
10 no catering in either trains. jhaalmudi was the only thing available

When BG describes something as less in quantity , it can almost be imagined to just a tasting session for many here. :)
Nice crisp report and hopefully will get to see some pics of Bolpur.
