A TB of this train [no proper large TB was there]. Train was quite empty, including SL coaches. The AC 2 Tier coach seemed locked and from outside, seemed as if not a single person had boarded it. For an intercity train like this[with a low average speed too], a AC Chair Car might make more sense than an expensive AC 2 Tier. There already exists an AC 3 Tier. The most popular class is 2nd Sitting in the train, though only a couple of coaches are devoted to it.

I was waiting for 11123/24 GWL bound Mail that was delayed around GKP[is construction work still going on at Cantt side there?] when the ICE came and went. The other train is Satyagraha Express on the other platform going towards GKP.

Tragedy of this train.It was recently converted to LHB from ICF. The AC coaches went up from miniscule 3/4 to a gargantuan 15. The result: I saw people traveling standing in the vestibules/doors of AC coaches.
