The rise in the demand of tickets for vistadome coaches introduced by the Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR) in many routes of north Bengal and the Northeast has now made railway authorities decide on introducing such coaches in the heritage mountain railway of Darjeeling.
The coaches have large glass windows and a glass roof, which offer the passengers the view of a stunning expanse of the surrounding landscape.
According to sources in NFR, as many as 24 vistadome coaches will be introduced in the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway (DHR) from April next year.
