Train travel in India has progressed through the years in many ways. Earlier on, there were a select few trains that took you across the country with one or two bogey types i.e. chair car or sleeper. You had little choice since train travel in India was very basic once upon a time.

However, today train travel has in some cases gone beyond the satisfaction of air travel. The cause of this was luxury trains in India that changed the entire scenario of how people viewed train travel in India. Train travel was once considered the mode of transport for the common man. Today, the rich are signing up to travel in luxury trains like Palace on Wheels that give you a wholesome train experience amidst the luxurious interiors of customized and hand crafted bogeys that include lavish and ornate upholstery and accessories. Add to this, services of a personalized butler, a dining car, bar, salon and other extras. It’s no wonder that luxury trains have gained so much popularity in the world of train travel not only with Indians but also foreigners who come from across the world to experience a ride in one of the luxury trains. In fact, the Palace on Wheels is usually fully booked at least two seasons in advance and it is pretty difficult to get a booking.

So, how does one go about finding out more details of luxury trains in India? The online train ticket booking facility by IRCTC, offers the traveller the convenience getting all the information online, in one go without the hassle of standing in long queues. IRCTC stands for Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation Limited and is the Government of India’s train tickets’ booking service. You can find information on all types of trains on their website including festival special trains, luxury trains, passenger trains and more. IRCTC is a great reference source for details.

The next time you’re thinking about taking a train journey, do it in style. Take a ride on one of India’s luxury trains where you will be treated like royalty, with every demand and request being met. You will get an experience of a lifetime. Add to this, services of a personalized butler, a dining car, bar, salon and other extras.
