Best connection in terms of punctuality between Bihar(Patna),Tata and Chattisgarh and better than BSP-PNBE weekly. But be aware, tickets availablity is very much less and gets a huge rush throughout​ the year. So if you are avoiding these problems then please prefer BSP-PNBE SF weekly.

ECR maintenance and cleanness is very bad on some coaches while some others have good i mostly travel in this train and the trains S8 to S11 is best in terms of cleanness while boogies which is booked for Patna is very dirty and no cleanness.. S8 to 11 is reserved for Rou Tata bound passengers then this bogies fill patna bound passengers from Tata station.
