First class is similar to second class in EU.
Air conditioning working, though set needlessly to low temperature

The train was running 2 hrs behind, the only help was the RDMNS.LK app. So I at least knew it was running behind before going to the station. The instructions on the pdf were that we needed to collect the ticket from the station but the m-ticket with the qr code is all we needed and we had already printed this out beforehand. No need to be super early, 15-20 mins is plenty if you already have your ticket. Colombo fort station has a handy tourist office to help foreigners navigate the system. The train was decent, a bit bumpy and not the cleanest but decent for the price. Inspectors do their checks which is good and helpful.

honestly for a student it’s quite a pricey train ride, but with aircon and relative silence it was pretty nice. the observation class seems to be equivalent to first class. ample leg room and tray tables equipped. local vendors embark before departure selling snacks and drinks, or are present at the platform. wide side windows for viewing, curtains to draw if too sunny and a large main window at the end. we all rode backwards so there was no cart after us hence providing more views.
