last week I trvelled in Rajdhani Express (Bangalore to Delhi) for the first time as I had never travelled in it before! Not that that traveling in Rajdhani has remain any kind of status symbol or something, infact I don’t think even now traveling in a plane has been a status symbol, I am still reviwing my journey by Rajdhani as it was an interesting experience and will help poor souls like me who doesn’t travel much and are traveling by rajdhani by first time.

So it was a 2300 KM journey which was supposed to take 34 hours and I was told that all breakfast,lunch and dinner including tea/snacks will be served which was nice since I had paid 50% more for my journey. A typical AC II Tier journey costs Rs 2000 from Bangalore to Delhi but here I had paid Rs 2800 and the fact that Rajdhani is no more faster than Sampark Kranti, I was expecting the food to make up for the Rs 800 extra, and I wasn’t really disappointed.

They serve “good” meals with sweets and deserts in the end, serve morning tea/coffee and overall keeps you busy. The good thing with Rajdhani’s is that, the chances of them getting delayed are very less (though I remember back in december/January due to fog, The Patna-Delhi Rajdhani was running late by 8 hours!

Overall it was a nice experience and I will highly advice Rajdhani trains for long distance journey if you are traveling with family in the summer, you won’t get lot of disturbance.
