since i completed my journey i was thinking of writing a detailed report of my trip..
It starts with the morning at 0500 hrs, i usually don't get up that early but out of excitement to meet my family at home, i somehow woke up at that time and rechecked the bag which i packed the previous evening.
I went for my work and came back at around 1330 hrs.
Changed...
more... my dress kept some more necessary items in my bag, and got out of the house and took an autorickshaw to reach saket...
Then i took a ride in metro to new delhi, and reached new delhi at around 1530 hrs, took lunch in the resturant at pf16, then saw poorva standing at pf16. Moved to the pf from where hwh raj usually departs, i saw cnb shatabdi departing from pf10 with a wap5 navodit, after its departure, the next to depart was rnc raj with icf rakes from pf14, followed by poorva and sdah raj with wap5 in duranto livery from pf16 and 13 respectively. In the meantime hwh raj arrived at pf15 with gzb wap7 in charge, then bbs raj on pf11 and pnbe raj on pf 14 both with wap4. The next was sk with wap4 on pf16 and shiv ganga on pf 12.
One thing which was common that day was that all the trains after once starting again stopped just before crossing the pf, the same was the case with hwh raj.
The cleanliness in the coach was good, 3AC coaches were having curtains, ac was working fine, attendants were properly dressed, black trouser, white shirt, black cap and name tabs.
The breakfast was served as soon as the train crossed gzb on the way to gzb saw the lhb rakes of pnbe anvt sf spl in yard of anvt and bsb gr on pf1 with prabal in charge. The breakfast quality was good, sandwich, litti, sauce, frooti, ladoo(coconut), two eclair. And tea.
It then crossed poorva then, asr kir exp and finally bgp gr. After crossing tundla the train suddenly came to a stop and in the meantime the starters for the dinner was served. After some time an announcement was made that the train has run over a cattle and is delayed, it stopped for one and half hours at tundla outer and none of the trains from behind crossed it, a big surprise for me.
In the meantime dinner was also served, it contained two paranthas, chicken, rice, pickle, curd, a fish pakora, salad. The quality of food was good. After it started the train picked up speed quickly and i went to sleep after having a very long day. Overall the food quality was good...
The train arrived pnbe at a delay of 1 hrs and 53 mins on pf2 not its usual pf. I moved quickly as the journey for me was not complete.
I reached hajipur with an auto rickshaw and boarded bsk for mfp, it reached 20 mins before time at mfp 40 mins it took to travel from hjp to mfp...
