Do you think Vande Bharat (T18) is overpriced?
** As per the news paper report the End-to-end fare structure is as follows:
CC: Rs 1760/- (Almost Rs 200/- more than Shivganga 2A and Rs 650/- more than Shivganga 3A)
EC:

Rs 3310/- (Almost Rs 650/- more than Shivganga 1A)

Theoretically CC fare should be less than 3A for similar trains, ryt? That means T18 is costlier than Rajdhani. Anyway, since it is fast enough and service is also considerably good, I think we can close this question as of now. But still one concern remains. Since IR is planning to replace all conventional rakes with T18 type, then will the train fare be very higher in future? Let's see.

Re# 4231042-11              
Yes, but looks like you missed a portion of my post. I said that as of now it's okay as long as T18 is a separate class. But one fine day if all the conventional rakes are replaced by T18 (as IR is planning), then will we be able to take a sudden boost of 2-2.5 times in fare or IR will restructure it's fare? We will have to see...
