Most of us have travelled in a train at some point of time in our lives. We know and understand the general chaos and panic at platforms, the sound of train running on tracks and a little long and exhausting journey. Most people in the country still prefer railways over airways because it is still a cheaper mode of transport. But this one railway proved it just wrong.
Maharajas' Express, operated by Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC), offers a luxury train travel experience offered to passengers on various routes. As per the official website of Maharajas' Express, "The Maharajas' Express recreates that exclusive experience for its guests. An opportunity to travel in this one-of-a-kind train, being served by friendly butlers while visiting India's most splendid tourist attractions in all their glory, would appeal to any individual." On this train, a traveller may select one of four routes and travel for seven days. One can go on The Indian Panaroma, Treasures of India, The Indian Splendour and The Heritage of India.
Kushagra, an Instagram user took to the platform to share a video of the presidential suite of the train. In the beginning scene of the video a man opens the Maharajas' Express suite room door. The internet user describes the space as being about the size of a single railway coach. It includes eating spaces, a bathroom with a shower, and two master bedrooms. According to the blogger, this costs more than 19 lacs.
