After some dramatic conditions i took this train. Thanks to Innova driver who dropped me at Vijayawada railway station just in 3 hr 30 min from LB Nagar ( Hyderabad)
As its a last minute plan, i didn't get tickets any trains or buses. on 14 th midnight i checked the trains from Vijayawada and SC to Visakhapatanam. All trains are full and regret. As its Ambedkar Jayanthi and Akshatritiya near by.
Luckly i found 15 tickets in current booking for this train when i checked it at 1:00 am. Innova

shuttle start from LB Nagar hyderabad at almost 2:00 am, this train leaves at 5 am from BZA. Still i took a chance of seeing its delay history. He dropped me at Vijayawada station at 5:40 am , we both (train and me ) arrived BZA PF same time. I think its PF 3. Surprisingly it arrived with 2 LHB second AC coaches at tail end. Both are in locked condition.
As all trains jam packed this also came jam packed with a P7. Good number of people people got down at BZA.
My coach is C7, most of the coaches are in very bad condition. Surprise to see worst maintenance for a SCR train. Finally i got into my coach, its lower deck a single seat near steps, not much push back. Earlier i traveled by MAS-SBC DD which maintained very well and felt more comfortable.
Our train arrived at 5:43 am , announcement came for LTT-VSKP to arrive at PF 4 , its stopped at adjacent to us. 2 SECOND AC LHB coaches dismandelled at BZA only.
Then announcement came from Thiruchunapalli - Howrah SF at PF 7. Its 5:55 am, Ratnachal express announcement came to arrive at PF 5.
All VSKP bound trains, our train arrived first, but still LTT - VSKP signal first. At around 6:03 Thiruchurappali-Howrah SF given, at 6:12 am announcement came for Ratnachal express to ready to start from PF. They detained this train at PF for almost 30 min and allowing all other trains. I got frustrated and tweeted to railways to start this train. Just given a try.
