My Trip Experience on 12424
I boarded 12424 from NDLS on 15th May. The train left NDLS bang on time after which lunch was served within 15 mins of departure. The train reached CNB 21 mins behind schedule but it made up all the delay and reached ALD 2mins behind schedule. Dinner was served before ALD. The train constantly maintained 80-120 KMPH btw CNB and MGS which it reached 4mins before.
The train next day reached BJU 34min behind schedule where loco change took place and here it halted for 25mins. The train

was tremendously delayed btw BJU and KNE because of which it reached KNE 1hr 8mins behind schedule. The train finally made up some lost time and finally reached NJP 38mins behind schedule where there was again a loco change for further journey here my journey also ended.
Some Points that I noted on board are:-
1. Food was Good.
2. Pantry staff was very courteous and helpful.
3. Bed Linen was very clean.
4. RPF was on board right from CNB to NJP till i got down.
5. The train lacked priority on NDLS- CNB section.
Thus overall i had a good trip.
I hope to finish my train journey with Padatik express to SDAH and then HWH Rajdhani to NDLS on 21st MAY.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
