Humsafar Express: Brand new all AC train from Indian Railways

Looking at the Indian Railway trains I feel they are lagging behind from rest of the world by at least 30 years. Their coaches are not attractive, very dull color, dirtiness in and outside the train but Indian Railways have made a lot of improvement in couple of years with many new types of train having modern amenities and facilities, good coaches. One such train is Humsafar Express which mean companion or fellow traveler. Train is covered in a very soothing and vibrant blue color. People will love this train. Many more new trains to come.
