The traveller, known by the username @epicnephrin_e, commenced her narrative with an observation about the inadequate window shields, requiring her to shield her face with a denim jacket throughout the trip. Next on her radar was the food. She considered the snacks on par with the average fare found on the Shatabdi. While she found the lunch satisfactory, she lauded its warmth and freshness, contrasting it with the usual cold and stale offerings.
However, the pinnacle of her journey was encountering the marvels of automatic doors and immaculate washrooms, a rare sight on Indian trains, coupled with the provision of braille translations for all instructions aboard the train.

Overall, her experience, though largely positive, didn’t resonate with many online as they began reacting to it massively, primarily pointing out the overlooked flaws in the train.
One remarked, “And has the worst overhead luggage shelf. Too narrow and not enough slant to prevent bags from falling down.” Another echoed similar sentiments, stating, “Yah faced the same problem, also the food is totally pathetic.” A third commenter joined in, noting, “AC doesn’t work properly when the speed of the train is increased. Window side seats doesn’t get cool air becos the of overhead luggage space. Middle seats are extremely uncomfortable for even slightly hefty persons. Not worth for money.”
A fourth observer emphasised, “This window problem is the real horror in these trains. It’s good that Gatiman Express has got good Window Curtains even though it is also a train like Vande Bharat.”
Since being shared, the thread has amassed a whopping one million views.
