From June 15, passengers onboard Rajdhani and Shatabdi trains can pre - order their favourite fast food to their seat online, on phone call or by SMS, with mandatory meals now becoming optional.
The Indian Railways has tied up with food chains such as Domino's, KFC, McDonald's and Sagar Ratna, among others. However, even as the service begins today, Ludhiana passengers travelling to Delhi by Shatabdi will only be able to avail food from Domino's and other restaurants such as Gyan Vegetarian at Ludhiana and Babbi Fish and Chicken.
Brands such as KFC and McDonald's are yet to start delivery at stations that fall under Ferozepur division of Northern Railways.
Divisional commercial manager Rajneesh Srivastava said this was an effort to provide a delightful travelling experience to passengers. He said a passenger must book their meals at least two hours before.
