Delhi Jn-Udhampur Jammu Mail between DLI and JAT in year 2009 in SL. Hell lot of unreserved passengers boarded from DLI in the whole train and didn't let me sleep the whole night till JUC. The tired me was sitting on the whole way from DLI to JUC on my side-lower berth. Later I slept from JUC to CHKB . Also to add, the coach was in shambles. Extremely dirty and stinky!
Travel from Kalyan till Tata by `18029 Kurla-Howrah Express almost 8-9 years ago. Couldnt get reservation in any other train. Though the train maintained its time , my berth number was 71 in sleepr class. Side lower berth right next to the door/toilets....and with passengers sleeping all near to the door, standing etc, most of the time was spent in trying to ensure that my luggage/belongings was safe. The funny part is that there is no end to passengers boarding the resrved coaches in all the states thro which it passed: MH, Chattisgarh & Orissa !!!
Traveled from DLI to GHY on 14056 Brahmaputra Mail on December 25th 2011, and i can say that it was my worst journey in life ever (as far as i can remember, maybe in childhood i would have had worse journeys but i dont remember) , started some 4 hrs late from DLI and reached GHY some 12-13 hrs late .. horrible pathetic and a nightmare for me that journey was..
I had a similar kind of journey while travelling NCB to NDLS by North East Express in Jan 2006. We got to know from enquiry that the train was running on right time but we reached the station late by 20 mins. However we got to know that the train was running late by half an hour and later it got extended by 2 hrs. The train was crowded though the coach maintenance was good. Pantry food was horrible. It stopped at Bakhtiyarpur for 6-7hrs and finally we reached NDLS 11 hrs late.
