_/\_ Great Great Useful
Here are the pictures! These are from CC class , Unsure about EC. The Rotis were made super delicious in form of Naan, they stay hot and soft for immediate consumption. The curries aren't spicy at all. They are delicious. One can easily have them. We also get a small salt sachet and a sanitizer.

The Onion stuffed samosa was warm and delicious too. You'll only get 1 of them. There's no 'Yes' for asking extra. However after Tea is served one can ask for an extra coffee.

I travelled with family hence 3 of us got 3 different juice flavors - Apple, Mixed Fruit and Guava. The Haldiram's were same for all the passengers. I guess the Haldiram's mixtures keeps changing.

Butterscotch is always great. Lucky to get it on that day. Not sure if Vanilla is served too.

Very useful . But whenever I go TPTY I use to stay at Vishnu Nivas or govindaraja cottage near railway station . I prefer it because near it we have Tirupati temple ( keel Tirupati temple) at walkable distance so and also we can walk from Railway station from platform 1 there is a FOB .

I stayed at Srinivasam complex till now as bus stand is nearby. Me and my group usually travel to Kanipakam, Srikalahasti, Kanchipuram, Vellore along with local temples. So didn't stay at Vishnu Nivasam till date. Did you stay in room or locker at Vishnu Nivasam?

Just last week i went to Tirumala/Thirupathi, from that observation i am sharing this tip if it was old tip pls ignore.

To reach Tirumala from Tirupathi railway station go to the extreme end of FOB next to platform 1, while descending itself u can see gov bus conductors will issue a ticket to reach tirumala hills and bus will be parked adjacent itself. Every 1 minute bus frequency will be available from Tirupathi railway station.Also to reach Alipiri or Srivari mettu Foothills (those who want to go by using footsteps
...

to Tirumala) small mini bus too available from Tirupathi railway station but frequency will be skeleton services.

If u r able to walk means, Tirupathi bus stand will be just 5 minutes walk, just wait on the main road close to bus stand free bus services to Alipiri gate(foothills for pilgrims who want to go by footsteps to Tirumala, but frequency will be maximum every 30 minutes). I used this free bus for my last week Tirumala visit.

High chances of trolling by SCR division, if this train reaches tirupati (tpty) after 18:00 (In case of reschedule and delays from SWR div).

Reason is SCR cannot find time slot to run it in Gudur - Vijayawada section in busy 19:00-21:00 hrs. It will be heavily trolled till Renigunta and will reach Gudur only after 21:30 IST. There are high chances on 3+ hour delays after GDR jn. when this train rescheduled from source station (YPR)

Subsequently, same train reached destination HWH with delay of 7h 40 mins.
