On 09-02-2013, I boarded 12267 from BCT. The train came to platform#4 at 10:30 PM. Never seen it entering so early on paltform in my previous trip. Before Boarding I got a chance to click some pics (attached).

I boarded with my collegues. The railway staff boy came announcing that no water bottle would be given to passengers so they should arrange it by themselves.
When TTE came to check tickets, I asked him why no bottle has been provided. He said no supply from catering. He asked me for fare difference. I said that IR should refund the water bottle charges. He didn't utter a word but only asked me to give fare difference in full.
Rest of journey was good with sound sleep.Reached ADI on time.
