I and my wife traveled by this train from Secunderabad to Dadar on 20th February in AC 2 Tier sleeper, in HA1 (half AC 1 class and half AC 2 Tier). We got the side berths, which was rather inconvenient since we had more luggage and had to keep it under the seats of the other passengers. The train left on time and the journey was smooth.
Though a pantry car was attached, the variety of food served was limited. The train stopped at several places but still reached in time, indicating that the running time can be further reduced.
One problem faced was the odd time for reaching Aurangabad where a good number of people get down and others get in. It was midnight and our sleep was badly disturbed.
It would also be helpful if the approaching station’s name is announced before hand so that passengers can get ready. Mouthshut need to get their act together, since AC 2-tier sleeper is not listed in the classes traveled.
