I have travelled by this train way back in Oct, 1983. I still remember the journey and it's distinctive livery. And I am really off, why this train was discontinued even in the era of Shatabdis. Railway minister and officers should try to revive this train on broad guage now. Interestingly the travel time between Jaipur and Delhi remains the same inspite to gauge conversion. So all the money spent in conversion has in actual gone waste.
