The new train for CWG visitors will start half an hour after the one that is already running to Bhopal.
DRM Devesh Mishra told Times of Agra that the special Shatabdi Express will run from October 4 to 16. "Right now the Agra Cantt station was being spruced up and facilities being added to welcome visitors during the games," he said.
The bogies will be differently painted and will have all the amenities plus arrangements to keep visitors informed about the latest going on in the games.
For the railways, this will be a great PR opportunity to showcase the Indian railways, a daily passenger Sudhir said.
