MUMBAI: The superfast AC double-decker train, which will make its inaugural run from Ahmedabad to Mumbai Central stations on Wednesday, will soon have LCD screens to entertain passengers.
"We plan to make available LCD screens in each coach on advertisement basis with no cost to the railways," an official revealed on Monday.


"It will ensure that passengers do not get bored," he added.
Bookings for the inaugural train (02932) on Wednesday and for the regular service (12931/12932) will open from Tuesday, the official stated.
"The capacity of a coach of the double-decker train, which has only AC chair-car compartments, will be 120 seats as compared to Shatabdi Express's 78, an increase of 54%," said the official. The train will have a paid pantry car service.
On its inaugural run, the train will leave Ahmedabad at 4.30pm and reach Mumbai Central around midnight. From September 20, the train will pull out of Mumbai Central at 2.20pm and reach Ahmedabad at 9.30pm. It will then depart from Ahmedabad at 6am to arrive at Mumbai Central by 1pm, said WR chief public relations officer Sharat Chandrayan.
"The train, which will run six days a week (from Monday to Saturday), will halt at Borivli, Vapi, Surat, Bharuch, Vadodara, Anand and Nadiad," he said. "The ticket fare from Mumbai Central to Surat will be Rs 318, to Vadodara will be Rs 406 and till Ahmedabad, it will be Rs 471. The train will cover a distance of 492 km between the two stations," he stated.
This train will help ease out the passenger traffic between the two important commercial and industrial cities, officials said. At present, WR runs 27 pairs of trains between Mumbai and Ahmedabad. In addition to it, 28 weekly trains run through Central Railway to Ahmedabad via Vasai Road station.
The double decker AC Superfast train, which begin its maiden run between Ahmedabad and Mumbai Central stations on Wednesday, will soon have LCD screens to provide entertainment to passengers.
