The iconic Indian railways train, Deccan Queen will get a new look after the external livery design of the iconic 90-year-old train was finalised. The Ministry of Railways has finalised the "Restrained Imperium" colour shade with red, green and yellow stripes for the train.

Many rail fans expressed disappointment, saying that there were many better shades suggested by Mumbaikars to be chosen from. The team of India-s premier design institute Ahmedabad-based National Institute of Design NID that took over the final designing process said the colours were finalised after numerous field visits, interactions with regular passengers. The design and the shade has been customised for the train, in-sync with the spirit of the train.
