-----------------------------
New Delhi Bhopal Shatabdi Express (Hindi: भोपाल शताब्दी) is a train operated by the Northern Railway which runs between New Delhi, the main railway station of India's capital territory, New Delhi, and Bhopal Junction the main railway station of Bhopal City, the state capital of central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. The train is the fastest train in India with the top speed of 161 km/h (100 mph). The train commenced service in 1988 and was the first Shatabdi train to be introduced. The train runs at an average speed of 91 km/h (57 mph), excluding halts and touches a top speed of 152 km/h (94 mph) on the 195 km New Delhi-Agra stretch, which is the fastest for a train in India.
The name "Shatabdi" means centenary in Sanskrit. The first Shatabdi Express train was introduced in 1988 to commemorate the birth centenary of Jawahar Lal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India. Sri Madhav Rao Scindia was Indian Railway Minister at that point of time and the Shatabdi Express was his brainchild. The first Shatabdi Express was flagged off between Jhansi and New Delhi, which was later extended to Bhopal.
The trains are fully Air-conditioned and of a much higher standard than most Indian rail coaches. Shatabdi Express travelers are provided with snacks, meals, coffee/tea, a one litre water bottle/ 300ml packaged water (for short distance journey) provided by the railways owned and operated subsidiary '"Rail Neer", and juice.
The train runs with new imported LHB coaches on all days. The cost of meals, breakfast etc. is all covered in the booking fare.
The train runs across the tourism hub of India covering major tourist cities like New Delhi, Agra, Mathura, Gwalior, Jhansi & Bhopal.
The train runs as a day train, and completes one side journey of around 701 km (436 mi) in 8 hours 05 minutes and it returns to New Delhi station at night.
As of Sept 21,2013 the train is supposed to stop at Lalitpur UP as well.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
