Some windows of the new train Tejas were found broken when it stopped in Delhi on Friday. Miscreants did so when Tejas left the Rail Coach Factory in Kapurthala on Thursday.

The windows of Tejas were found wrecked when it stopped in Delhi.

"We came to know that a few glasses were damaged, but it is not a serious issue. We will correct it," India Times quoted DK Sharma, general manager, Central Railways.

"The train is expected to reach Mumbai on Saturday. Once it arrives, we will inspect it and make the necessary repairs."

TEJAS EXPRESS

Tejas which is manufactured at the Rail Coach Factory in Kapurthala, will run from Mumbai to Karmali. The train will undertake the journey in seven-and-a-half-hours.

The new train is fully air-conditioned and will be flagged off on May 22.

Tejas has infotainment screens installed in the seats for information and entertainment. The new Tejas has modern-day automatic doors unlike the old trains we have in India.

According to Suresh Prabhu, 'Tejas will redefine train travel experience in India.' The new Tejas train also adopts energy efficient lighting with LEDs.

The Executive Class fare in Tejas has been fixed at Rs 2,540 without food and Rs 2,940 with food. The Chair Car fare is Rs 1,850 with food and Rs 1,220 without food.

Equipped with CCTV cameras apart from smoke-and-fire detection system, the 19-coach Tejas train will have bio-vacuum toilets and GPS-based passenger information display system.

Catering services for the new train will be managed by the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC).

"We received instructions from the railway board for the arrangement of catering services in the country's first Tejas train," said an IRCTC officer.

According to an official, tea and coffee vending machines along with snack tables will be available in each coach.

Promised in the budget, Tejas Express will also be pressed into service in Delhi-Chandigarh and Delhi-Lucknow sectors soon.
