Few problems that can be improved
1) Executive Class is given in middle of train, hence other class people keep moving continuously and there is no privacy even after paying more. EC should be at front or back of train.
2) Since the flooring is carpet now, Dyson Vacuum cleaners should be provided instead of traditional method of sweeping the floor. @Central_Railway @RailMinIndia @AshwiniVaishnaw @GM_CRly. Also the food quality can be improved, no1 prefers dusty cornflakes in India. He also tagged Central Railway under which the Mumbai-Shirdi Vande Bharat Express operates along with Railway Minister Ashwani Vaishnaw, Railway Ministry and General Manager of the Central Railway.
