- Operates under IRCTC’s Bharat Darshan / Gaurav scheme, blending rail and road logistics.
- As with many special tourist trains, punctuality can vary—community reports on Reddit suggest these often receive lower operational priority and may run late.
- Always verify the latest package availability, boarding points, and pricing at the official IRCTC Tourism portal before booking.
