livery. i went in and occupied my berth, 29,which was side lower. in my coach, there was 1 MP, with his 2 accompliances, two MLAs with their accompliances, and one ex-mla. they were all going for a rally (most probably of RSP party) that was arranged in new delhi the next day. there was no berth empty in any coach of 2ac. the coach as well as bathrooms were neat and clean. soon, the windows were washed from outside by soap water and mop. i went towards the loco to see the road number. it was wap7 30294 of ghaziabad . sharp at 16.50 , there was a shrill horn, and the train started with a jerk.
