If you are travelling with economy class tickets then you can’t expect much facilities as the cabins are old and not well maintained. In previous years government invested amount to upgrade the AC Sleeper service and the reviews have been good after these attempts.

The train also includes a dining table for the sleeper classes where passengers can enjoy healthy food. LCD, Mineral water and newspaper are all provided to passengers making it a comfortable journey.
