My Travel to SBC-MAS-SBC
Onward Date : 07.09.2013.
Train No.: 12028 SBC-MAS - SHTB
Had both pleasant and unpleasant exp.
Pleasant First
Tkt...
more... Status WL-50 at the time of booking and got CNF with Coach No. C-10/52. Aisle on 3 seat side.
Started home by 0500 Hrs. got auto.. rchd stn by 0515 Hrs. Train was already backed into PF.. This time PF allotted was PF 6 as against regular 7. Lalbagh was already brought in at PF 1 and loco was RPM P7
Surprised to see SHTB was in PF 6 instead of 7, PF 7 was allotted for Markuupam pass.
just then RPM 7 was backing up to get attached to SHTB. just waited to c d attachment... it was auto coupling.
chkd at d chart confirmed my name went inside cooling was good, but felt little more chill.
Trains tarted at 0605 Hrs. gained speed but slowed dn imm. rchd BNC at 0615 Hrs. Speed was good. TTE came after train crossed KJM. I showed SMS and PAN card.
A lady who sat next to me had E tkt, but didn't brought her ID card.. TTE asked for her ID, she said it has been misplaced. TTE said a fine of Rs.1000 has to be paid... and he went.. after sometime he came with fine receipt of Rs.1025.00 and asked the lady to pay.. the lady said she didn't hv that much money.. TTE said to her nothing doing, u need to pay. please ask your people who come 2 pick you up get d money to pay and he went.
At first 2 biscuits, and 2 chocolates were given. And coffee was served after sometime
Break fast was served when d train was passing JTJ on PF no.3. Usual 2 slices of Bread / JAM / Butter ( Cheese ) / Kharabath / Vada. And second coffee was served.
Rchd KPD at around 0900 Hrs on PF. 2.. just came out. A small kid developed some breathing problem, .. they were supposed to go to MAS but alighted at KPD. Guard (some unpleasent scenes I had with him after KPD ) helped them by calling people thro' wireless. Guard chkd in d train for any Doc. unfortunately no docs were present. he guided to railway worker to take d child to the nearest docs place, near d stn.
Train reached MAS at around 1050 Hrs on PF No. 10
Unpleasant:
I was standing at the door when d train started at KPD.. Guard told me go in which I did...and i was standing near d entrance.. he said " Where are u going.. u should not stand here.. this is PRESTIGIOUS TRAIN.
When d train crossed AJJ, I went to releave myself.. he again came y u keep coming.. I just said I can't sit for along time, I get pain in my leg. he just took me to his cabin and asked me tkt I showed SMS, asked for ID card I showed PAN card, issued by IT dept, he said it is Xerox... I said no it is original.. issued by IT dept. and now it is outsourced and issued by PAN wing of NSDL.. he took my address...
I DON'T know what is meant by PRESTIGIOUS TRAIN.... and non PRESTIGIOUS TRAIN.
so if I travel by rajdhani, he wants to pax to sleep all d time ?
U R views plz
