My experience of travelling in VB – It was good but not the best.
I had booked ticket from Dadar to Pune. The train arrived 2-3 mins delayed at Dadar, but that’s acceptable. Reached Pune bang on time. So, punctuality wise – satisfied. The train technology makes it superior to others. But the aesthetics, interiors are not with fine finishing. Lot of places, it could be easily seen that edges are left with sharp ends, food tables are loosely fit etc. etc. They have really hurried in manufacturing leaving fine details unattended.

please wait...Translate to EnglishMy VB travel experience was okay but not amazing. I booked a ticket from Dadar to Pune. The train arrived a couple of minutes late at Dadar, which is alright. It reached Pune right on time, so punctuality-wise, I'm satisfied. The train's technology is better than others, but the interiors and aesthetics aren't well-finished. I noticed many edges with sharp ends, loosely fitted food tables, and other such details left unattended. They seem to have rushed the manufacturing process, neglecting the finer details. VB is supposed to be a premium train, but they have authorized vendors selling chips and chocolates, which is really crappy. The food served was also just okay. A Potato Wada with Sauce, Chakali, and Chiwda? I didn't understand the logic behind this food selection. Compared to the service, timing, and cost, VB can be considered as just an option, not the first choice.
