It has a bad reputation for maintenance. Old coaches, AC outage etc. Once SCoR is operational, they may get new coaches and better maintenance. It takes long time to erase a bad reputation.

Why do you feel or come to a conclusion or just a statement that it not patronized and I disagree with all the excuses given above. Done some research in the last one week and summary is as follows. 3 AC 7 * 72 504 berths 5SL 5*80 400 berths. When you check the current availability on any day in the past week at 1800 after the charge prepared the result is not available or current availability of 10% or less the total capacity. There are a total of 250-270 berths booked end to end in 3AC and 100-120 in SL. So the rest are booked to intermediate stations like Vja WL and enroute stations from VSKP. This shows 90- 100 % occupancy. Now come to sections in the middle checked current availability in NGP yesterday and found 3AC not available SL 23 2AC 97 berths from NGP to...

NDLS. There are 5 2AC which is more for any AC train except a few Raj between metro cities. Out of 250 odd berths 150 are booked that too in a non season like month Feb which extends till march end. Total capacity of the train is 1150 and 120 berths are vacant in middle with 90% shows the occupancy or preference or demand of travellers. This shows the success of the train after change in timings. Earlier there used to be 200 vacant in 3AC and 150 in 2 AC in total of 750 capacity in weekdays Mon to Thrusday morning dep which has consistently improved in past 1 year in 2019 before timings changed and now to 90%
