Shaan E bhopal express before getting lhbfied had vending machines inside some coaches which facitilated passengers to take refreshments such as tea coffee soup
They should again start this service. Do anyone agree ?

I had talked about this with BPL Div officials and Train Supritendent of RKMP CDO last year, they said that the services were shutdown because of the time table change, SEB is departing 1 hour 40 minutes after the pre ZBTT time. They are assuming that passengers have already done with their dinner by that time, also E-Catering option is available in train for passenger who wanted to have food. For Mini Library they are saying that LHB coaches doesn't have any free space to setup that. Most importantly the ground level staff/officials want to have some extra services in SEB but higher officials of BPL Div are not interested, that's why you can see the decline in outer cleanliness and punctuality and priority of SEB.

Timings actually make these less useful as previous timings supported those but after speed up most passengers are concerned about Sleeping only. Quite less of Night Owls like us traveling regularly and for them stops are somewhat frequent for them to get items from Station Premises.
Also, it would require it's own staff and add to overhead. Unless they're absolutely sure about impeccable maintenance of facilities, they shouldn't start at all. I've seen decline in maintenance of trains post LHBfication, especially considering what masterpieces they actually used to be in ICF era.

Rani Kamplapati Vande Bharat Express experience still remains kind of my worst maintained Vande Bharat Experience after Anand Vihar Terminal Ayodhya Vande Bharat. There are frequent complaints about food being loaded from Itarsi in Rewa Vande Bharat.
Plus Jabalpur keeps trying some new things like RSA of Shaan E Bhopal with one of Jabalpur Nizamuddin Trains 😂, it has stopped now but let's not go in that direction.
Perhaps best would be to work towards getting back to standards Pre LHB then we can talk about additional facilities such as these. Also even Hot Water Thing would work basically if at all required as most people carry their ready to make Tea and Coffee pouches with them.

I have travelled in this quite a few times in pre LHB era around 2011 and I agree on the facilities part. They were a class apart.

The issue with 12155 specifically is now that it runs with 12121 with a bare 10 min gap. Net result, both trains have seen a decline in punctuality and priority. If 12121 gets slightly delayed in the freight heavy Katni Bina stretch then 12155 gets precedence to go ahead. Then because MPSK has lesser stops it sometimes overtakes SEB at Morena. I think they

should change MPSK slot to make it depart Jabalpur after 8 and arrive Nizamuddin at it's old arrival time of 9.10 am

Generally its TKD P7 only but now since ET has more number of P7 than TKD, so could be possible, however this runs with offlink loco very often.

still we showed our love and affection towards this train by placing new belly boards mentioning the 25 years of service, cake cutting and rose distribution to Crew, Railway employee and Passengers of GS and SL .

Due to time constraints and work commitment some of our fellow RFs and Officials were not able to make it to the event but they joined us digitally to be a part.

Special Invitation card was designed by for Railway Officials to be a part of this event. All designs were made by Hardik Pathak.

A very special Thanks to,
Devashish Tripathi Sir, DRM, BPL Div
Saurabh Katariya Sir, Sr. DCM, BPL Div
Naval Sir, CPRO BPL Div
Ravindra Sir, PRI, BPL Div
Vikas Shukla Sir, SSE CDO, RKMP, BPL Div (Shaan E Bhopal is his child).

for letting us live this moment, and making it special.

Once Again a Very Happy Birthday to Pride of WCR, We RFs from Bhopal are blessed to have you as our favorite continue to deliver service to passengers for eternity like you did for past 25 years and make us proud.

Do see the pics of event, video will soon be uploaded on my YT Channel.
