Re# 4393560-37              
I had to take a special train from Tundla Junction to Jaipur. Those days i used to sleep early in the morning and wake up in afternoon (due to daily race blogs) train was scheduled to arrive at 23:40 but initially it got delayed by 4 hours. I left from home at 2:30AM and reached Tundla at 3:10AM. But at that time also train was halted at Jhinjhak and suffering from back to back overtake. Finally it arrived at 9:30AM after facing overtaken by Rajdhani gang and Jalia Wala Bagh Express.
Experience was super because i spotted almost every speedstar of that route.
