First Class in Express train

Would be happy if you can guide me the difference between First class in Sampark kranti/Karnataka express (Bangalore-Delhi) and Rajadhani.

Given a chance I would prefer to travel in express train but would like to know the experience who have already travel.

Please share your experience.

Many thanks...

As far as I know, there is no difference in layout.

More important trains will be better maintained, generally speaking. So I would expect the Rajdhani to be better.

Yes no difference in lay out but difference in fare.
When you say first class it is air con first class. Non AC first class coaches have been practically abolished.

Mod Note

Hi shenoy. It would be appreciated if you used full english when posting on the forum. There is a wide variety of nationalities that use IndiaMike, and english can be a difficult enough at times, without using text. Thanks for your help with this.

The only difference between Rajdhani 1AC and normal express train 1AC is .......... "Livery" :-)
( another could be that food is included in the fare for Rajdhani)
