News summary

Indian Railways has successfully tested the Vista Dome train on the historic Kalka-Shimla route, a UNESCO World Heritage site, which is expected to significantly enhance tourism in the region. The trial run demonstrated a reduction in travel time, completing the journey 30 minutes faster than usual, with a goal of further increasing speeds to 30 kilometers per hour. Local taxi drivers and travel businesses are optimistic about the potential economic boost from the new train, which features panoramic windows for breathtaking views of the hills. The Vista Dome coaches were first introduced in 2018 as a popular tourist attraction, and the current enhancements could attract even more visitors. There are calls for Indian Railways to introduce night trains to capitalize on the expected influx of tourists. The Kalka-Shimla railway has been a vital connection since 1903 and continues to captivate travelers with its scenic journey.
