Kota to Patna ain't just a name, it's a vibe among us students from Bihar and UP chilling in Kota. Every time I solo'd in on this train trip, felt like I'm with my own peeps coz most of the gang hops on this train. Not every time though, last year in April I rode in from 13423, bailed to Patna on 19669 HS for the summer break and back on 13237, then for Diwali, again hopped on 19669 HS and came back on 13423, and in March (end of session) took the 13240 to Patna and returned on 13237, this time prolly gonna hit up 13424 unless things get wild and we end up running till 1 PM and then only one train left in the evening and that's the Kota to Patna one.

Check it out, here's the PNR. Can you predict it? 🙏

Kabhi aise scene me fas gaya hai kya?

One of dad's buddies is in the Kota DRM office, so she sends this PDF which has all the deets about the number of Head Quota berths in each train that crosses Kota.
