It is always a good feeling when we see that our heritage is preserved and maintained properly. When we move near to it, watch it and feel it, we instantly dive into our history. Indian railways also has its own history, preserving which is a challenge. Already we are fast moving towards modernisation by scraping our historical rail routes turning them to tackle heavy mobilisation of people. Therefore, it is heart-warming when we will see that world’ oldest running train – the Fairy Queen, is ready to hit the tacks after it was shut down in 2014. After repeated complains of breakdown, railways decided to pull off the train from tracks and remove all the shortcoming before it begins its journey yet again. On 8th of October, the Fairy Queen will start its journey again from Delhi to Alwar of Rajasthan. To travel on the world’s oldest train you need to take the package that includes 2 days and 1 night circuit with an overnight stay at Sariska Tiger Reserve. |
