Old First Class Railways

vmehra · Jan 31st, 2006, 09:34

I am interested in experiencing the old First Class (Non-Ac) on Indian railways but most trains now dont have it. Can somebody tell me which trains do have it esp on trains
departing from Delhi, Jaipur, Ajmer (more generally Western India).

3008 Udayan Abha Toofan Express from Sri Ganganagar to Howrah via New Delhi has old 1st Class. There are some other trains which also have but the number is very few.

The old first class is now found mainly on the metre gauge trains.

Try the trains at a glance site that used to only be an annually published book.

It shows the classes but First is hard to find.

Like you I'd be keen to experience the breeze and space these carriages provide
