No, that is the fastest train in India, some other trains do the journey in 3 hours, but most take 3.5 to 4 hours.

The Shatabdi train (2002) is very fast, add the fact that it starts from New Delhi (central to most hotel areas) and it's a very good option.

Yeah Shatabdi is the best option, very comfortable, mostly on time & a good breakfast served on board.

6 days of the week it arrives in Agra at 08.12, it's a knowledgable train, it doesn't feel the need to rush on a Friday as the Taj Mahal is closed on that day.

Yes it starts early, then it goes through Agra and all the way to Bhopal (arr 14:05), then it turns around and comes back departing Bhopal at 14.40, passing through Agra at 20.30 and arriving at New Delhi at 22.30, then the train sleeps for the night.
