Had a Special Trip back to Delhi after Darbhanga Visit and Patna Visit. DOJ 22nd June 2023
Got shunted on Platform some 5 minutes before departure time.
Low Platform height at Ara is truly a grave concern. It's highly dangerous especially with luggage and rush.
ECR is truly pathetic at maintainence of it's stations.
Train...
more... was well maintained, clean. There was a lot of water between the glasses on the Door Of AC Coach. Toilets were clean but later got stenched courtesy of Idiot Passengers. Smells coming from 3E and 3A were totally unbearable.
Got good priority all the way. Reached DDU Outer some 40 minutes before time. Reached Prayagraj with delay of 10 minutes. Got some delay till Kanpur but covered it, reached 20 minutes before time at Ghaziabad Outer got heavily regulated and reached Anand Vihar Terminal 40 minutes late.
please wait...Translate to EnglishHad a super cool trip back to Delhi after visiting Darbhanga and Patna. Went on 22nd June 2023. I got totally screwed and stuck on the platform just 5 minutes before the damn train was supposed to leave. The platform at Ara is ridiculously low, man. It's seriously dangerous, especially when you've got bags and there's a crowd. The East Central Railway (ECR) seriously sucks at maintaining their damn stations, bro. But hey, the train itself was pretty decent and clean. Only problem was that there was a ton of water between the windows on the AC coach door. The toilets were clean at first, but later they turned into a damn stinkfest thanks to some idiot passengers. The smells coming from cabins 3E and 3A were straight-up unbearable, man. But hey, at least I got some good priority and reached DDU Outer like 40 damn minutes early. Made it to Prayagraj with a 10-minute delay, but hey, that's not too bad. Had a bit of a delay in Kanpur, but eventually made up for it and arrived at Ghaziabad Outer 20 minutes ahead of time. But damn, got super regulated and arrived at Anand Vihar Terminal a whopping 40 minutes late.
