Are Bhagwan! Wo Kya hai?
None of the berths are booked in 1A today in this whole train and the beauty is that no PNR have bothered atleast to get upgraded!
So 1A becoming vestigial in today's run?
Pathetic situation of 1A in this train!

Due to fare....I think 2k+ in 1A in this mahal exp that too ICF coaches....I think HA1 is 90s made coach in this train....But in pandian 1A 1940 rs only with LHB coaches....Which is far better when compared to this train.....And again this is a weekday MDU to MS journey so the crowd will not be there...If same MS to MDU means then it would have got filled....Atleast some seats...!!!

At last a very happy news for delta rail users.
Immediately after the day of interlocking works, Thanjavur Trichy double line was opened for use of public. This will save the travelling time by 20 minutes and also the first train to go in this new constructed double line is 16795 Cholan Express (MS - TPJ leg.) Simultaneously all other night trains towards Trichy where operated in the new line as per my friends information. Hope it serves good for delta ...

This train shares its rake with TN Sampark kranti. But there is no Pantry car in this train. Will they remove the pantry for every run or kept closed.
