24.3.10
This is a VFM train on the Mum Del circuit. Left Pune early morn, finished my work in the Western suburbs and caught this train at 1730 from Borivali. Couldnt manage a berth so adventurously booked chair car. The AC is quite comfortable and surprisingly the chair car seats are much more comfortable than the Garib Raths plying on Konkan Railway. The speeds notched up by this train is comparable to Rajdhani. It makes it to Surat from Bvi in 2 1/2 hrs and Vadodara in 4 hrs.
The only irritating thing is the bright lights in chair car are not switched out throughout the night.
