Train hostesses to welcome travellers with roses
PTI | Feb 21, 2016, 11.38 AM IST
Like flights, there would be hostesses on the train and catering will also match the standard of airliners.
NEW DELHI: Imagine being ushered into a train by a hostess who presents you a rose bud as soft music plays in the background.
It will soon be a reality, with the railways deciding to introduce train hostesses on soon to be launched Delhi-Agra Gatiman Express, the first train in India to run at a speed of 160 kmph.
Gearing up to launch the Gatiman Express next month, railway minister Suresh Prabhu will announce special features of the first semi-high speed train in the country when he presents the Rail Budget on February 25.
The train will have a high-power emergency braking system, automatic fire alarm, GPS-based passenger information system and sliding doors in the coaches. There will also be live TV service as part of infotainment.
"We are trying to provide best possible services in Gatiman matching the flight services," said a senior railway ministry official.
