This train runs for almost 27-28 hours from origin to destination having 24 coaches and twin Deisel engines to haul but does not have a pantry car. It appears very strange to me. I travelled by this pair of services in both ways many times. It remains fully crowded and always a huge waiting remains on this sector except July Aug.
Unfortunately despite the huhe need pantry is not being considered. On board housekeeping services are there but the staff remains sleeping and I did not find them working unless one goes and catches them to attend to cleanliness.

hardly checks the tickets, what I fond that tickets are not checked very seriously by every new TTE whenever he takes his duty. Even the IDs are not demanded strongly. There are no power sockets in S-5 of this train near seats.

Palwal is a last station of Northern Railways on Delhi Mathura section. It has 8 platforms and many local trains ply from here to and fro Delhi -Mathura. Unfortunately there is no licensed porter services available even when there are around 1000 long distance travellers visit this station.
Local train passengers are around 20000 but they are primarily not needing porter services. Authorities must look in to this genuine need.

This station is a favorite evening walking place of the town especially by elderly people. The station is situated right in the middle of the town and there is no proper park developed by the Municipality.
