12275 Allahabad Duronto at sublime MPS with Gaziabad WAP 5 #30012. Covering 641 Km at 81 kmph Flat !!!
----
Starting from Allahabad it overtook trains like Koaa-Anvt,Poorva Express,Rewa,Sangam,Vaishali,Prayagraj,Shramshatki etc !!
----
Howrah Rajdhani,Sealdah Rajdhani,Bhubaneshwar,Patna...
more... Etc Crossed at MPS too. Newly amplified Sampoornkranti Express also rushed at 130 Kmph flat.
----
**Few NCR Followers ended up saying that Ranchi Garibrath has better priority than the Ranchi Rajdhani recently. But Here in this Video we can see Sealdah Rajdhani Running ahead of Ranchi Garibrath which means Overtake happened which never happens with Ranchi Rajdhani.I Guess.**

About the train -
Right from the starter it felt good onboard Allahabad Duronto,Speed is good,Homebased Priorty has to be good and it was. Coaches looked Maintained but they were too much shaky while being HLHB. One cannot walk straight through the coach when the train is at MPS without support of nearby objects. An average HLHB coach is indeed jerky but not that much. Overall Good Train.

About Allahbad/NCR-
I have been there for like 30-40 times but always through the night but this time I got to see the real image in the broad day light. According to me there are 2 Dimensions of NCR(MGS-NDLS) 1) MGS -ALD ,2)Post ALD.
I was lucky to judge it fair and square because on the same day I was onboard 12307/Jodhpur Sup Exp till ALD and further on Allahbad Duronto. So In the Dimension 1 of NCR We were Right On Schedule or may be Before too till MZP but then the situation got worse I ended up reaching ALD 3 hours late. There Was not a single drop of water in any of the coaches and we were stranded at various stations for hours. Dimension 2 of NCR was very Pleasant as always it has been,No Delays,Everything on schedule not only with 12275 but also with all the other trains that I have used till date.
Station Premises also need a serious cleanup. Everything is dirty in there. I was shocked to watch people Spitting all around and even urinating ! Bottom line - Its a very important station the trunk line and needs to be restructured as soon as possible and as a Divn HQ it atleast need to be Clean !
