Travelled by this train yesterday from Jallandhar Cantt to NDLS. Following was observed;
1. Train departed from JRC 40 mins late.
2. Arrival at NDLS was 1 hr 30 mins late.
3. Rake composition was EOG-B8 to B1-A4 to A-1- H1 - EOG. The rake is most probably of the old Jammu Rajdhani (coaches still had the food heaters installed).

In my opinion this train can be made regular beyond it's run date of 19 Nov. Timetable can be made better. Dep from Ambala is at 7 and arrival at Delhi is at 1120.
Without any scheduled stopped between these stations, time can be reduced. Between these stations, this train gives way for KALKA shatabdi and Amritsar shatabdi.
