Mumbai, Sept 11 (IBNS): In a major successful attempt for revamp in Indian Railways, the Spanish Talgo train completed its final trial run between Delhi and Mumbai on Sunday.
The superfast train completed the journey under 12 hours, that was set as the targeted time.
According to reports, the train left Delhi at 2:45 pm on Saturday and reached Mumbai on Sunday morning at 2:34 am.
