Visitors looking for something different, have another treat in store for them at the capital, New Delhi. Indian Railways is all set to signal the revival of Fairy Queen, a tourist train hauled by the world's oldest working steam engine. Beginning this month, the train will ply on the Delhi Cantonment - Sariska (Alwar) circuit, covering the journey to Sariska in seven hours. Keeping the winter cold in mind, you board the train at a leisurely pace, in time for its 9 a.m. departure from Delhi cantonment. The Fairy Queen will commence its return journey the following afternoon, reaching Delhi at the reasonable hour of 6.45 p.m. In action since 1855, the engine is a National Award recepient. It is sturdy and still going strong. So train lovers and wildlife enthusiasts, get geared for 'a slice of the wild life' in the company of a trusted oldie!
