I traveled in this train on 5th june by sleeper class. Following r my comments:
1. The train left BBS sharply at 8.15 am. Through out the journey it was 5-15 mins before time at its technical halts. But it reached delhi at around 7 am. It stood outside delhi for 30 mins.
2. The coaches being new are good. I got a side lower and i was surprised o see a charging point even for a side lower seat. A cleaner was mopping the passage and toilets every 2
...
more...
hrs. I gave him a 10 rupees at d end of journey. The poor chap deserved it more than attendant.
3. The speed of the train was the best part of the journey. Just out of BBS & i think it was touching 70-80 kmph and after CTC maybe 100kmph.
4. Now the important part - FOOD. Terrible, pathetic call it watever. Maybe food is better in AC class. But i could not touch my lunch and just eat a little in my dinner. In bf - 2 bread slices, butter, sauce omlette, 2 water bottles(tast for the whole journey). Lunch - Half cooked rice, burnt chapatis, 1 egg curry, dal, pickle, 1 small rasgulla. Evening tea. Dinner - Same as lunch but in desert laddu.
5. The attendants were a bit rude but looking at d food i thought they dont care about sleeper class passengers.
So my review about this train is tat its best for reaching on time. But for food u better carry ur own if in sleeper and about AC i dont know.

Actually in this case he is mentioning charging points for side berths.
Normally for side berths we wont find them...i think all new LHB rakes are going to have them. Any other trains with side lower charging points ???
