⚠️ 4. Passenger Insights & Limitations

  • These 0-series special trains offer no reservation—travelers often face crowding and no seating guarantees.
  • As with other special-fare services, they are assigned low operational priority; Reddit feedback highlights frequent delays of several hours and punctuality issues:

    “Special trains… lowest priority… often delayed… up to 12+ hours.”
    “Never opt for special train unless there is no option; they are often delayed.”

  • Coaches are basic 2S (second seating) only; no pantry, no sleeper class.

✅ 5. When to Use & Alternatives

  • Ideal for short-distance, low-cost travel between Bhavnagar and Surendranagar when reservation isn’t needed.
  • For more predictable timings and reservation, consider the regular Surendranagar–Bhavnagar Passenger services like train numbers 59204, 59234 which run in similar time slots with more commuter support
