Divya Singh traveling
The best way to see India is at ground level on the Indian railway system, and not at 30,000 feet. In fact, no visit to India would be complete without the experience of travelling on Indian trains and negotiating busy Indian railway stations! These informative lines send us Divya Singh from India. Divya Singh says train travel is safe, cheap and comfortable. Indian Railways is believed to be one of the largest rail networks across the world. It covers a length of over 62,000 km and takes nearly about millions of passengers on a daily basis. Even long distances such as Bombay to Delhi or Delhi to Varanasi can be covered more time-effectively than flying, using overnight sleeper trains.
Indian trains often get fully-booked weeks in advance, so it’s worth booking before you get to India if you have limited time or need to be on a particular train soon after your arrival. The history of Indian railways is a long and rich starting its journey from during the British rule in the country. British during their rule required a fast mode of transport for troop movement and so they introduced trains. The first train was introduced on April 16, 1853 from Bori Bunder to Thane and comprised 14 carriages, which could comfortably carry about 400 passengers. After that many new passenger trains were introduced that spread across the length and breadth of India crossing the distance between Jammu & Kashmir to Kanyakumari, and from Gujarat to Assam, crossing all major cities between their routes including Kolkata, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kerala, Pune, Bangalore, and Mumbai.
