Its a pseudo-Rajdhani in the catering perspective as well, besides being so in terms of speed.
The attendant will ask for your preferences Veg/Non-veg N.India/S.Indian on Day 1 at the time of boarding.
Thereafter he'd serve you all meals at the respective timings. Dinner-Bfast-Lunch-EveningTea-Soup-Dinner-Breakfas t.
At the end of Day 2, he'd bill all of it and present it to you.
...
more...
A rough figure of the total amount is 300.
The food provided is MUCH MUCH better than what they serve in SBC-NZM Rajdhani Express.
So the tip here is, when you're split between the 3A costing 2000 bucks (plus 300 for catering) for 35 hours in KSK and the one costing 3000 for 33.5 hours in the Rajdhani, decide logically.
.
PS: This tip has been written from the point of view of a 3A traveler. Services in other classes may vary.

Sorry, I commented for train 12650. Below comments can be referred for that train, not 12649.
SBC Rajdhani is the first choice of many, due to the better timing.
Drawbacks of this train are -
1. Early morning start from the source.
2.
...
more...
2 days of day time travel.
3. Late evening arrival at destination station.
Advantages of this train are -
1. Punctual among this category of trains.
2. Better for Hyderabad (KCG) passengers, as it arrives early morning.
3. Good catering (As per your information) but a bit costly.

Now THIS is some frustrating stuff in all SWR overnight trains, no matter how good the projected intentions behind this are. And they do take this thing seriously. So it is advisable NOT to leave your homes/offices with discharged gadgets!
.
PS: Strangely this does not apply to non-AC coaches.

This is to prevent short circuit and save people from burning to death while sleeping. I would say good move from SWR.
