Useful:Oh ok fair enough... 👍👍
Sry I could not check till Srinagar. But I calculated that the fare till SVDK is supposed to be more or less the same as VB, assuming that catering service is included in the fare of this train. So its a better deal that the VB but it is on the higher side of the sleepers. Also the quality of food and other amenities would be quite comparable to AC classes in other trains. So till SVDK or JAT it might not be that worth it. But for the stretch after SVDK, this would maybe be quite suitable. (But other trains would receive extn. sooner or later and it would be interesting to see how this would perform.)

Now thats unfortunate, hopefully this train and others does not become target of their attacks. These trains are only for their benefit.
