showed my ID only. Arranged my bed, consisted of 1 Blanket, 1 pillow, 2 bed spreads
Cooling was dam good, coach is of 13 made.
I just spread d blanket & above blanket i covered one of bed spread as I'm allergic to blanket. I don't use pillow for head instead use for knee.
D train started bang on time, since fan also was running I slept immediately it seems, don't know any stations crossed. Got up when d train was crossing DKN ( petrol smell)
Reached SBC @ 0510 hrs on PF 3, after waiting at outer for about 2 minutes
LL was RPM 7 , 30316
My next trip to MAS is on 18th instant
