Today I would like to share with you the experience of Vande Bharat train,This was my solo trip, I was going from Lucknow to Prayagraj to my sister's house.My train was at 9:45 in the morning and I left my home at 8:00,as the railway station is at a great distance from my house.
This is my Lucknow railway station which is known as Charbagh. It was built during the British era and no other railway station in India is more beautiful than this. I had a train and I was in a bit of a hurry. That's why I didn't take photos of the entire railway station.
I prefer metro to go to the railway station from my house. Because the metro reaches quickly, on top of that one has sitting in air conditioner coach, There is neither any traffic problem nor do I have to sit next to anybody.vThe best thing is that the metro track is interconnected with the platform railway station, so I don't even have to walk much there.
My train was about to arrive at platform, I reached there 20 minutes early, I find the most useless thing to do is to wait for the train at the railway station. After having to endure the cold air of the metro, I had to face warmth and sunlight here on the platform.
Many questions were running in my mind. Because I was sitting in Vande Bharat for the first time. I heard a lot of praise from people, Till now I am sitting in a old train which makes a lot of noise. But I am really excited for Vande Bharat,I had watched it on YouTube, finally I am going to experience it now. I was feeling happy.
Finally my wait ends and Vande Bharat is coming from the front, which is called bullet train which runs at a speed of 160 km/hour.
I did not take a photo of the train from the front because the train stops for a short time and I felt that I would be on my coach first.Like I have shared these photos earlier also in the reflection contest. You can see how crowded it was.
I was in such a hurry to catch the train that I reached the first passenger in my train 😛
The train has comfortable seats with ample legroom, and the push-back arrangeme, With water bottle stand on the side of the Seat. After the train started, all the passengers were given a Bisleri bottle which I found a bit impressive. There was also an option for food in this train, you can order non-veg but I had to travel only 3 hours so I did not include food.I don't like outside food while travelling, so I brought my own food from home.
I was having a lot of headache. Because I didn't sleep properly the whole night, I just had a coffee.
If we look at my personal experience, I did not like Vande Bharat as much as I had thought in my mind,I also saw in the video that the seats move 180 degrees. But there was nothing like that in this train. And the seats was not so comfortable, it had velvet on it, due to which I was sweating more. on the Other side, the train had reached Timely without any delay, cleanliness in the train was good. The staff of the train was well trained.
