It is heartening that the dining car of the iconic intercity train, Deccan Queen, has been upgraded to provide a more comfortable journey to the travellers. In just a few more months, people commuting between Mumbai and Pune will get to enjoy their breakfast along with the panoramic view of the Khandala Ghats.

Deccan Queen, started by the British in 1930, is one of the most prestigious trains run by the Central Railway and the only regular passenger train that has a separate dining car. Regular Mumbai-Pune travellers and rail fans must be ecstatic about the revamped train, which the Central Railway says will also provide a comfortable journey.
