Know Another New Development By Indian Railways
Indian Railways have always aimed to better tourism across routes with Vistadome Coaches. The introduction of Vistadome Coaches in India dates back to 2018. Mumbai-Madgaon Janshatabdi Express was the first one where vista dome Coaches were added. And the positive response from passengers led to more vista dome coach additions in the last few years. The recent development of the West Central Railway looks forward to adding vista dome coaches to Jabalpur Janshatabdi Express. We are sure the large glass panels, observation lounges, etc, will better the travel experiences of the passengers.
