The AC coaches were cleaned a couple of times last time I traveled, but the SL coaches were in bad shape. Many people are from Ayodhya Jn. Food orders are taken by vendors on the train, but the quality is not great. Sometimes, especially in Bengal, people selling idli come on the train, which is much better. Tickets are pretty easy to get on this train because the starting and ending stations are small. The train speed is slow due to various reasons, but the loco reversals are cool for train enthusiasts.
