Ptahetic, Ugly and stinking train

The Delhi ( Rohila sarai) to Bandra Terminus Garib rath is filthy. Having no Pantry , the hawkers are supplying food at higher rates. No Dust bin in the coaches. Although booked bed roll while booking ticket , the coach attendant does not supply bed roll. The coach attendant was doing brisk business by issuing bed roll @ Rs. 25/- without issuing any cash memo. Why not bed roll is included with ticket? It takes 22 hours from Delhi to BT. The fare is no less than other mail/express trains. There is no discount for the senior citizens.

CSTM - Howrah Super fast Geetanjali Express must be further speed up. With more number of stoppages , it has become just an ordinary express . Till scope is there to reduce travel time by 2 hours. The food items supplied by Pantry is costly. It should be prevented from hawkers and beggars.

The rakes of Train nos.12471/12472 running between Bandra Terminus & Jammu/SH MATA VD KATRA S/F EXP are in the worst physical conditions. The berths, basin, toilets are in the worst condition. The seat covers are torn in Sleeper class coaches of all compartments. The doors of toilets are either broken or cannot be shut properly. The mobile charging points provided in some of the Sleeper class coaches are not in working conditions. People reading this and who have traveled by this train will agree with me. Imagine the plight of passengers travelling for longer distances by this train.
