A very long 2 and a half day journey.
Day 3 - On the train.
So a long day in the train.Travelling in AC 2Tier
For Breakfast was Bread and Omlette 40
For Lunch was Egg fried rice 60
For Tea was Egg Chowmein 50
And for Dinner is Rice and Chicken curry 105.
Observations on the train.
2Tier journey is pretty boring if you are alone. My 1.4gb data ran out by mid day having to watch videos and listening to music.
Another thing, Indian travellers get quite offended if you turn down a request for change of seat. I had booked my tickets 4 months in advance so I get my preferred seats and I might have my own justification for why I needed it.
Anyways all I wanted was a lower berth not necessarily window, but definitely lower. A couple with kids were very upset that I refused to exchange.
There is a lot of options if it comes to sleeper class, there is AC 2Tier, AC 3Tier and then Second class. If they are someone who can get confirmation in the 2Tier they could have definetly got their choice of berth in 3Tier
They made a bad choice thinking that the person next to them would adjust. They should have prioritised whether it was 2Tier AC or Lower berth.
And Last of all the dinner that was ordered came at 9:10pm. A lot of people with kids who ordered dinner where all screaming, the caterers were apologetic and explained that it's been a problem ever since they changed cooking to electric from gas
Another day and half to go to get to guwahati
Day 4 - On the train.
Good diary entries so far Nitin. I like the general observations made in writing and the photos posted.
