Choose from first, second and third. The best is first class offering air-conditioned carriages and comfy numbered cushioned seats. First class seats go fast since most trains have only one carriage for first class facilities. The second class is minus the air-conditioning but with fans and open windows to keep cool plus, the seats are cushioned; pre-book second class tickets too since this is the most sought out and busiest section of the train. The third class is a snag; the un-cushioned benches fit three, instead of the comfortable two and there are no fans. Prices vary according to class but do consider overall comfort when booking.
