Gen coach is good instead of s12...bt do u really think people will take a first class ticket in a non-deluxe train from kolkata to goa,instead i think they would prefer taking 1st class of the hwh-cstm duranto till cstm and then kk to madgaon...it'll be more better and luxurious 1st a.c journey as compared to this route.....i would say either ab1 or b3....3 coaches of a.c 3rd will be better...:-)
