Cleanliness is the must. You can't believe what I had witnessed just two days before. Returning by Midnapur EMU, just before Tikiapara 12246 DN YPR HWH Duronto crossed our train through the middle line of SER(Serves both UP & DN) hauled by a Worn Out SRC WAP-4(Ek new WAP-4 bhi ise nasib nehi hua). The Passengers can't even sit aise khusboo aa raha tha bhai woh train se, thank God we overtook it at Tikiapara. The entire Hybrid LHB rake of HWH YPR Duronto is very badly maintained. No cleanliness, coaches emit bad odor always, specially the Pantry Car is like hell the entire train is the dwelling of rodents. You can find Mice Catchers under the berth of every compartment of it.(Horrible experience of mine in 2012 in it)
