Re# 918915-45              
please add 12445/12446 Uttar S Kranti in the list. Very very clean coaches,and i am talking about general compartments. So you can guess about SL and AC coaches.
And about being punctual? Well, i can bet my money on it.

PR is no doubt a very nice train but SK is better. ;-)
PR is puntual because of less aggressive schedule than Kranti (NDLS-ALD) and also it spends 99% of its journey in its home..Extend DNR Div till GZB and i bet that SK will mostly reach its destination early by taking the advantage of non-stop continuous run with LHB rake which PR can only dream of..At least PR will get LHB rake in future but not that non-stop schedule like SK for-ever. ;-)

Today PR has the biggest advantage of spending almost all its journey time in its home..
Is puntuality the only criteria??
No,being a puntual train isnot a big thing as puntuality of any train completely lies in the hands of enroute controllers and it depends upon the aggressiveness of the train's schedule too..A train having huge slack will always be comparatively less delayed/more puntual or a good train like PR running almost completely in its home will always be expected as a puntual train...Even there are many passenger trains in IR which are

very puntual..So,u can't distinguish SK with other trains in terms of puntuality but u can distinguish in terms of of that aggressive non-stop schedule and it doesnot lie in the hands of controllers too...I guarantee,even that most puntual passenger train will not have that aggressive non-stop schedule like SK but it may be puntual like PR..
In terms of puntuality,SK is nothing in front of not only PR but also lots of M/E/SF/Pass trains and u know the reason for that. :-)
