Tea Garden Express is mostly occupied by Velankanni Church pilgrims and sad to see people buying worst food from platform vendors....Better buy Breakfast/Dinner from Vasantha Bavan / Ananada Bhavan in PF1 in TPJ(Tiruchirappalli)......These Platform vendors sell worst quality food on board.......for heaven sake dont buy food from these platform vendors.....

Runs full always.Keep your ticket in your pockets till TPJ.Ticket checking is very rampant and TTE rude if you take time to take out your ticket and ID proof.
Reaches TPJ before time and very punctual till ERS.Dinner can be had from TPJ.If travelling in higher classes the Coach Attendent goes outside the station premises for food parcel for himself.Try getting it through them to savour a good vegetarian dinner.
If de boarding at intermediate stations in Kerala before time arrival is a high possibility.

If you experienced one rude TTE doesn't mean all are like that. You can't generalize it like a tip. I have seen drunk TTE and smoking TTE doesn't mean every TTE is like that.

Why should I keep my ticket ready in fear of getting rude replies by the TTE? Ticket checking is what he's paid for. And he ought to wait for me to reach to it. Suggesting people to be ready with tickets is not the way to handle the problem of rude TTEs, putting up a complaint against them is.

From TPJ First class gets crowded with un authorised travellers and the passage ways leading to washrooms gets occupied by passengers who do not have reservation,especially on weekends.
