The Indian Railways will deploy one of the world’s most luxurious trains ~ the Maharajas' Express ~- to carry President Droupadi Murmu from Safdarjung railway station in New Delhi to Vrindavan Road station near Mathura Thursday morning.
The train is operated by the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) for high-end tourists during winters.
"An 18-coach train formation will comprise 12 coaches of Maharajas' Express, including Presidential suite, deluxe suites, restaurants, lounges and power cars for the President and her staff. It will have two standard AC coaches for senior railway staff to accompany," a railway official said.
