One wonders though, why India should not try to make such experiences affordable for more Indians. Why must these trains exclusively cater to the foreigners, and the super rich Indians? A lakh for a week is too much to spend for even well earning professional types. You wouldnt travel alone, so thats a couple lakh for just a couple. Add kids, and you are broke!

Good one. This is the most readable and most informative piece I've seen about the Golden Chariot. The ones in the Slimes of India were pure barf and the ones elsewhere too PRish. How did you get to ride the Gravy Train though? :) Yo! Good one. This is the most readable and most informative piece I’ve seen about the Golden Chariot.
