sexiest dress up

Deccan Odyssey re started it's services after the luxury tourist train received a 360 deg upgrade by the Maharashtra Tourism Department Corporation (MTDC) to lure many tourists.

Today we have many luxury trains in India which pose a fair competition to the Deccan Odyssey.
But that would be an unfair comparison.  

Many would be unaware of the fact that before 2008, it was only Deccan Odyssey  of Maharashtra and Palace on Wheels that covered India in style.
When the services of Deccan Odyssey came to life again the State Tourism Minister explained and took opportunity to talk about Luxury Trains. He explained how this is not "relaunch" but "resuming" of services.

The train once showed lot of potential though never reached there. Hoping now it gains it's glory.
