Padatik Express 12378 Train

If there was an option to give this train a rating of zero, I would have done that, The most important aspect of travelling by train for a woman is to feel safe, no matter which coach you’re travelling. I travelled in AC 1st tier with my husband. We were woken up in the middle of the night when we were fast asleep by the station TT in some confusion with the booking of another co passenger in our cabin. He was extremely rude and tried to scare me off by saying that I should stay inside blanket as 2 more men will share the cabin - the train TT himself was implying women are not safe in here (including from a***oles like himself). I felt extremely claustrophobic for those 5-10 minutes when TT was in our cabin solving them confusion of tickets of our copassenger. And after that couldn’t sleep at all through the train journey despite of exchanging seats with my husband and moving to upper birth. In addition to that, train wasn’t on time, it was an hour and a half late, the washrooms were not bad but could have been cleaner. It’s upsetting how one TT can completely ruin a woman’s journey by making her feel unsafe. I wouldn’t recommend this train at all, even if you’re travelling AC 1st tier. I had the most pleasant experience in Darjeeling mail while going from Sealdah to NJP, Would recommend the same while travelling back as well from NJP to Sealdah ( we couldn’t get Darjeeling mail tickets unfortunately and had to travel via padatik on our way back). Next time I travel, I would only prefer a flight or Darjeeling mail, given safety and feeling safe is of utmost importance.
