This train is dope, man! I rode 1st class from CST to Nizamuddin on June 8, 2022 & here's the lowdown:
1. Punctuality - A tad late at Jalgaon, Gwalior, but on time at Nizamuddin. 5/5
2. Railfanning - Started with Thull ghats & ended with tons of overtakes the next morning. So much fun. 5/5
3. Cleanliness & Maintenance - Top-notch. Totally clean inside and out. Washrooms stayed spotless throughout the journey. 5/5
4. Food - Absolutely delicious. They offer Jain food for dinner & breakfast too. In 1st class, you can customize your meal like a boss. Snacks include sandwiches, samosas, tea/coffee, and more. Dinner - rice, chapati, dal, paneer, veggies, curd, pickle. Breakfast - cornflakes, toast, eggs, tea/coffee. Almost perfect, could've used better dal. 4.8/5
5. Staff - Super friendly & didn't even ask for tips. 5/5
Overall, great train for 1st or 2nd class. Met expectations & then some. No complaints, all praise! 🙌👏👏👏👏

Yeh toh sach mein best mein se ek hai. 8th June 2022 ko CST se Nizamuddin tak 1ac mein travel kiya & mera observations:-
1. Time samjhne wale - thoda late tha Jalgaon, Gwalior pe but Nizamuddin pe time pe/reasonable late. 5/5
2. Rail deewano ke liye - Start Thull ghats se & subah tak multiple overtakes. Maja hi aa gaya. 5/5
3. Safai aur Maintainance - Top class. Damn good. Chahe 2ac ho ya 1ac, super clean exterior, interior, washrooms. Har meal ke baad, cabin saaf kiya gaya. Washrooms destination tak clean rahe (both 1st & 2nd ac). 5/5
4. Khana - Mast tha. Jain food bhi available tha dinner & breakfast mein. 1ac mein, agar regular food nahi chahiye to apna choice bata sakte ho. Jaise paneer bhurji/paneer chilly matar paneer ki jagah, aalu jeera mix veg ki jagah. Khao jitna mann kare, sath mein ice cream bhi (vanilla flavor, kismat aazmao kuch aur flavor mil jaye. Mene puchne pe butter scotch mila) & so jao chilled cabin mein.
Snacks - sandwich, samosa, soan-cake, chai /coffee, roasted almonds
Dinner - Rice, Chapati, Dal, Matar Paneer, Mix veg, Curd, Pickle (requirements ke anusar badli ja sakti hai)
B/F - Cornflakes, Bread butter, cutlets/omlette/upma/poha (poha jain ke liye bhi available), chai/coffee 4.8/5 (daal thoda behtar ho sakta tha, baki sab acha tha)
5. Staff - Bahut polite, no - nonsense staff. Smile ke sath attend aur serve kar rahe the. Kisi bhi tips ke liye nahi bolte the. OBHS digitally feedback lete the. 5/5
Overall ek bahut acchi train hai 1st ac ya 2ac mein yatra ke liye (khana alag hoga par baki sab almost same hoga)
Umeedein toh acchi thi & yeh train unhe puri bhi kar diya. Koi shikayat nahi, Koi pachtava nahi.. 🙌👏👏👏👏

Bed Rolls are included in the fare for AC classes, which is pretty cool. Here are some things to know about them: 1. The linens are similar to those used in other trains, but they are brand new because this is a new train. 2. The blankets are of better quality and they're all new too. Nice! 3. The pillows are bigger than the ones in other trains, and they're super comfy. 4. Instead of regular towels, they provide thick, one-time use towels. These towels are similar to those poly bags that are trendy now after the plastic ban. They're better than the old towels because they can be reused after washing, but they're still not the best. Overall, this new pilot project in the Rajdhani train is great and should be continued in other trains too. Thanks! #thinkDKG_TravelTips

Bed Rolls are included in fare as in AC classes it is included...
1. Linens are similar as used in other train but this one is just new due to new train
.
2. Blankets have improved quality and all are new again
.
3. Pillows size is large as compared to other trains pillow size and also the pillow is very much comfortable...
.
4. New thing is that instead of towel they provide one time usable thick quality towel, quality is similar to poly bags which are now in trends after plastic ban..
They are good as compare to old towels as they are are re useable after washing and not upto satisfactory level..
Hence this new pilot project in this Rajdhani was good and must continue to other trains...
THANKS
