#03426 PUNE MLDT Special Train
Some of my relatives boarded the train today (rescheduled from yesterday)
1. The day before we were notified the train rescheduled by 05.30hrs, followed by another 1.5hrs.
2. As usual, no visibility of platform allocation at Pune. It departed from #6.
3....

Sleeper coaches - No maintenance, bad odour around the washroom. We have found 65,68 berths and it is really difficult.
4. Upon check, due to shortage of staff and bla bla.
5. Very good number of UR coaches and as many people. (No queue like in KYN LTT)

What an insult. Not even a single politician from AP is asking for Kurnool extension. We only care other states

Yesterday (19:09)   20822/Santragachi - Pune Humsafar Express | SRC/Santragachi Junction (6 PFs)

Hello everyone,

Posting here on IRI after a long time—hope you're all doing well!

I recently traveled on the 20822 Santragachi Humsafar Express, from Santragachi Junction to Panvel Junction, and wanted to share...
more...
my review.

Date of Journey: 12/10/2024
Loco: Tata WAP7 39109 powered the train.

Punctuality:

Absolutely horrendous, and I mean it! The train is often rescheduled from the source, typically running 4 to 6 hours late. By the time it reaches Panvel, delays can range from 8 to 10 hours, sometimes even stretching to 15 hours, thanks to SER’s prioritization of freight trains.
Luckily, my journey was on time at departure (6 PM from Santragachi), but we reached Panvel on Monday around 2 AM—2 hours late, dated 14/10/2024. We even got overtaken by the 11040 Maharashtra Express at Bhusaval Junction!

For Mumbaikars, I would suggest using this train as a last resort, especially since Santragachi is not easily accessible, and public transportation is limited. Trains like Geetanjali Express or Jnaneswari Express are much better options.

Cleanliness:
There’s OBHS staff dedicated to cleaning every 3-4 hours, but honestly, the coaches were quite dirty, indicating poor primary maintenance by SRC CDO.

Food:
I ordered my meals online—lunch from Nagpur and dinner from Bhusaval—so I can't comment on the pantry car food. However, fellow passengers mentioned that the quality wasn’t great.

Railfanning:
There wasn’t much to see, but if the train is delayed by an hour or so, the Bilaspur-Nagpur Vande Bharat Express overtakes it just before Nagpur. I was fortunate to witness this during my trip.

Ticket Availability:
Except during Durga Puja or other festivals, tickets are usually easy to get. However, given the train's poor punctuality, I recommend considering alternative options for this route.

Safety:
Be mindful of your luggage, as there were no RPF patrols during the night.

Feel free to correct me on any points, and I welcome your comments!

Here are some snaps I took during the journey.

Cheers!
