For those who might not have seen my journey on the double-headed ICF Rajdhani in 1995. Here is part 1 from BCT till RTM.

This was my last journey on the double-headed Bombay Rajdhani and in ICF avatar. It was also my first with Pushkar Apte who I have known since 1989. We couldn't have asked for a better start - Bombay Central to Vadodara in 4 hours 21 minutes non-stop; not a single unscheduled halt. Now, THAT'S priority! This video covers the journey till Raltam....
