Restrained Imperium! The finalised design manuals of India's first train with a dedicated colour scheme — the Mumbai-Pune Deccan Queen are here. The colours were finalised in May 2020 and the manuals of its details were handed over to the Central Railway by the team of India's premier design institute Ahmedabad-based National Institute of Design (NID) after due approvals by the Ministry of Railways last week.

"The only pending thing now is the internal designing of the dining car cum pantry that is awaited from the railway board. Once this design is approved, the design of the train that is to be manufactured at Integral Coach Factory in Chennai will be complete," a senior official said.
