Excellent experience. Punctuality, food, security, cleanliness, railfanning- all top notch. All coaches, except S4 and H1 have now been replaced with regular "Utkrisht" Yellow ICF coaches and that is very disappointing. Time to replace it with LHB with unique livery.
I travelled a week back and had a nightmarish experience. Train was rescheduled by 2 hours and reached banaras 13 hours late. All my appointments got cancelled. There was no food and water and the staff was helpless. Whenever it reached a station, there was a fight among passengers at the station vendors. I had kids with me and god only knows how we managed. The only good thing was that the coach was cleaned from time to time and patrolling by RPF staff.

metalmint~ 55 blog postsI had a very average experience travelling in this train. Disappointing that almost half of the humsafar coaches have been replaced by normal LHB coaches and have no extra services to justify the premium. Train started late and was delayed all the way through. Cleanliness was good, frequently patrolled by RPF staff and the food was palatable. I did have the pleasure of seeing some high speed skips and overtakes, but these are few and far between. Recommended if you cant find seats in Gorakhdham.
