The best thing to do at this station is stand at the FOB and move to whichever platform our train arrives. Never believe the Display boards, nor the announcements.

This issue still persists. It is a nightmare to board trains from RU since platform announcements are always done in the last moment just 5-10 mins before train arrives. Despite repeated complaints nothing is done about this.

Very good packing. In every station and meal packs these type of rate chart should be present so passengers are not Overcharged. I bought few items at DHN and GMO few minutes back. All shops displayed Rate charged and they charged exactly the same price as Menu Card. Good catering at DHN and GMO.
