We were on the Ella odyssey train on 5th April from Badulla to Colombo. Train was bit less crowd but still people were on board including forigners. After Nawalapitiya I noticed some of the cleaners and catering staff having big bash near catering area. They were playing songs very loud and also yelling loud. I don’t know whether this is common occurrence or one time but the atmosphere is so disappointing specially this train is known as key tourist attraction. So as a concern person please make sure to control as key sri lankan icon maintain its sri lankan value
