⚠️ Traveler Tips

  • Special train (09305/06) carries no guarantee of consistency in coach type or punctuality. Reddit reports warn:

    “Special Trains are very slow, don’t take them.” turn0reddit23
    Operational delays of several hours are common on such specials due to lower priority and older stock.

  • The weekly Express 19305/06 is more reliable, runs with LHB coaches, and includes pantry/e‑catering. Better choice for planning.
  • Both trains have long travel times (~47 h) crossing multiple states; luggage, food, and rest planning is critical.

✅ Recommendation

  • Prefer 19305/06 weekly Express for more reliable AC travel and consistent schedule.
  • Use 09305/06 only if specifically scheduled for festive or peak-season support, but verify close to travel date.
  • For seat availability, fare info, or station-by-station schedule on your date, I’d be happy to look that up.
