Indian Railways Shatabdi Express Reviews

Oct 30, 2006

The Shatabdi trains are daylight trains playing business routes.  After a bad long bus ride between Chandigarh and Amritsar, I treated myself to Executive Class on the Shatabdi Express between Delhi and Ajmer (in order to connect to Pushkar).


Train left on time at 0610 and we arrived about 15 minutes later than the scheduled 7 hour duration.  During the journey, Executive Class passengers were offered:



an individual pot of tea plus biscuits
Kellogg's cornflakes with hot milk
choice of hot samosas or hot omellete
choice of thick mango juice or orange juice, and
more tea and biscuits

I understand Economy Class passengers also enjoy food as part of their paid fare but I'm not sure if there is any difference in quality.  Seating arrangement was 2+3 in Executive with extremely generous legroom and 2+2 in Economy.

Thank you Alexchan for sharing your experience.

To find the more Shatabdi Express trains and to book your ticket visit http://www.indiantrains.org/.

This will be a good site which has so many features in a single page . The better way to search Indian trains looks great and it open fast, no pop-up, user friendly. every information in a single page . this concept is good and some of the features like calendar, train running day has not come in a single website in this reviews. the most important features i have seen in this site that if the user does not know the station code then also he can see all the trains and it is only website which have a drop menu box for the important station from where you can choose the station name and also it has a date calendar from you can choose the date and it show the running day of the train so that you can know which day of the week this train is running. the other most important feature i have seen in this website that it show the train which does not have the reservation coach for the benefit of the user and they are showing the passanger train also which is also not available in any website.

Pros: all the features which user need, open fast, user friendly, good look and interactive, update data regularly, new features
