SiddharthED_P4~ 3532 blog postsThe good old ICF days of Coimbatore Shatabdi Express!!!
The Shatabdi express which was running earlier was stopped due to low patronage, It was replaced with an Intercity express departing at identical timings. Later, Indian railways introduced a Duronto Express between Chennai and Coimbatore in 2011. It was decided to convert back to Shatabdi and add additional stoppages to increase revenues with the Duronto rake.
The train got new LHB coaches in November 2014. My channel link: click here

Good old ICF!! Maybe you are reminescing the ICF coaches. This train when reintroduced had the notriety of carrying one of the rusty, rickety coaches that were sent for "eeyam pithalaikku pereechampazham" by other zones. Thank god it got converted. BTW, that's a good video, though.
