I reached Hazrat Nizamuddin at 00:35 hrs and saw that the train was shunted out of the platform for it's scheduled cleaning and SM. I thought that the train will depart at it's scheduled time of 05:00 hrs but at it's departure time, it was just shunted at the platform and departed at 05:35 hrs, 35 minutes after it's scheduled time. I slept after the departure as I arrived from Jalandhar via shatabdi and hadn't slept whole night. The train gained a delay of 1 hour as it reached Mathura and gained some more delay as it reached Bharatpur where the Goa Rajdhani overtook us. The delay continued in the next halt SWM. While most of the delay was covered at the next stations KOTA, RTM and BRC, the train was now just 12-15 minutes delayed as it departed from BRC. Some delay was gained as we reached the following stations of BH, ST, VAPI, DRD, BSR and PNVL. I thought that the train will cover it's delay in the night and will depart from Ratnagiri on time or with a minor delay but it departed with a delay of 1:40 hrs from the said station. Then was the time for mighty Konkan route, tunnels, greenery, mountains, rivers, bridges and much more was in front of my eyes as I was gazing through the window. The scenery that I saw in videos until now was in front of my eyes. The delay of more than one hour although not as much as Ratnagiri, was continued in the rest of my journey. After the departure from Udupi, the train gained a decent speed of 100 kmph but staying at this speed was just a matter of few minutes 😔. Now came the station of Nandikoor, the train had an unscheduled halt here and had the same at every single station until MAJN. The reason for the unscheduled halts was 01185 LTT-MAJN special which had some halts between Udupi and Mangaluru while our train was non stop between the said stations. Finally the train arrived MAJN at 17:20 hrs, exactly 1:15 minutes delayed from it's scheduled time. Although, the train didn't had any overtakes other than that of the Goa Rajdhani, it had a lot of unscheduled halts throughout the journey.
Cleanliness - The train was clean as I first boarded and the same was continued in the rest of the journey, my coach A1 was cleaned throughout the journey. The toilets were clean too.
Maintenance - My coach was 2022 manufactured and was maintained nicely. There were no complaints

please wait...Translate to EnglishI reached Hazrat Nizamuddin at 00:35 hrs and saw that the train was moved from the platform for cleaning and maintenance. I thought it would leave at its scheduled time of 05:00 hrs, but it actually left at 05:35 hrs, 35 minutes late. I slept after departure because I had just come from Jalandhar on the Shatabdi and hadn't slept all night. The train was delayed by an hour at Mathura and gained more delay when the Goa Rajdhani overtook us at Bharatpur. The delay continued at the next stop, SWM. While most of the delay was made up at the following stations KOTA, RTM, and BRC, the train was still 12-15 minutes behind schedule when it left BRC. We gained some delay at BH, ST, VAPI, DRD, BSR, and PNVL. I thought the train would make up for the delay at night and leave Ratnagiri on time or slightly delayed, but it left with a delay of 1 hour and 40 minutes. Then came the mighty Konkan route, with tunnels, greenery, mountains, rivers, bridges, and more. It was all in front of my eyes as I looked out the window. The scenery that I had seen in videos was now right in front of me. The delay of over an hour continued for the rest of my journey. After leaving Udupi, the train picked up a decent speed of 100 kmph, but it only lasted for a few minutes. Then we stopped at Nandikoor and had unscheduled halts at every station until MAJN. The reason for these halts was another special train, 01185 LTT-MAJN, which had stops between Udupi and Mangaluru, while our train was non-stop on that stretch. Finally, we arrived at MAJN at 17:20 hrs, exactly 1 hour and 15 minutes late. Although our train didn't have any other overtakes except the Goa Rajdhani, we had a lot of unscheduled stops throughout the journey. The train was clean when I boarded and remained clean throughout the journey. The toilets were also clean. My coach was well-maintained as it was manufactured in 2022. No complaints.

Journey date - November 3, 2023
Mein Hazrat Nizamuddin pohucha at 00:35 hrs aur dekha ki train ko platform se hata kar saaf karne aur SM ke liye le gaye hai. Socha ki train apne schedule ke hisaab se 05:00 hrs ko chal padegi lekin chalne ki time pe toh bas platform pe le jaake chali gayi, 05:35 hrs ko, apne schedule se 35 minutes late. Departure ke baad, jaisa ki mein shatabdi se Jalandhar se aya hua tha aur puri raat soya nahi tha, main so gaya. Train ko ek ghante ka delay ho gaya Mathura pohunchte hi aur thoda aur delay hua jab hum Bharatpur pohanche aur Goa Rajdhani ne humko paar kar liya. Delay badta raha agle ruke tak SWM. Sabse zyada delay toh KOTA, RTM aur BRC station pe cover ho gaya tha, ab train sirf 12-15 minutes late thi jab BRC se chali. Thoda delay badta raha jab hum BH, ST, VAPI, DRD, BSR aur PNVL pohanche. Meerut, train apna delay poori kar legi and Ratnagiri pe time pe ya minor delay ke saath chalegi yeh soch raha tha, lekin station se 1:40 ghante late chali gayi. Fir aaya Konkan route ka waqt, tunnel, hariyali, pahad, nadiya, pul aur aur bhi bohot kuch mere aankhon ke saamne tha jab main khidki se dekh raha tha. Jo scenery mein videos mein dekhta tha, woh ab mere saamne thi. Train mein zyada se zyada delay though Ratnagiri ke jitna nahi, hai aage ki yatra mein bhi aage badhti rahi thi. Udupi se train ne 100 kmph ki acchi speed pakadi lekin iss speed pe thaharne ka waqt bas kuch hi minutes tha 😔. Fir aaya Nandikoor ka station, yahaan train ko aniyamit rukavatein mili aur isi tarah ke rukavatein har station pe hui MAJN tak. Uniyamit rukavaton ki wajah thi LTT-MAJN special 01185 jo Udupi aur Mangaluru ke beech mein rukti thi jabki humari train dono stations ke beech non-stop thi. Aakhir mein train pohunchi MAJN 17:20 hrs pe, bilkul schedule se 1:15 ghante late. Goa Rajdhani hai hi alawa, aur overtakes nahi hui train ki, lekin yatra mein itne rukavatein thi ki gin-gin ke khud hi beet gayi.
Safai - Train jab main pehli baar board kiya tha toh saaf thi aur yehi safai poori yatra mein bani hui thi, meri coach A1 poori yatra ke dauran saaf bani rahi. Toilets bhi saaf the.
Maintenance - Meri coach 2022 mein banayi gayi thi aur khoob ache se maintain ki gayi thi. Kisi shikayat ki aawaz nahi thi.
TB aur SB ki pics update kardo jaisa chahiye.
