Since it was introduced in April 2016, its rake is relatively new and also of better quality,\u201d said one of the IRCTC officials involved in the project.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking in detail about the upcoming upgrade of the train, we\u2019re anticipating anti-graffito vinyl wrapping in the cabins, starting right from the doorway. The toilets will have modern soap dispensers, sanitary pad dispensers, and needless to say the taps will be modern as well. The LED-back lit pictures hanging will make the overall look more appealing. Even the exteriors of the train will be touched up with paints.<\/p>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-124268\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/2016-04-05-75-gatimaanexp.8d5d7.jpg\" alt=\"Gatimaan Express\" width=\"950\" height=\"534\" \/><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jagran.com\/news\/national-gatiman-express-with-21-passengers-arrived-on-gwalior-station-before-6-minutes-17546875.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Though Gatimaan Express is known to travel between Delhi to Agra, but the services extend to Jhansi via Gwalior. The train speed declines to 130 kmph from Agra to Jhansi owing to the conditions of the track. Gatimaan Express starts from Delhi\u2019s Hazrat Nizammuddin Station, everyday except Friday at 8:10 am and reaches Agra by 9:55 am. If you are in for onward journey, you will reach Gwalior by 11:16 am and Jhansi by 12:35 pm.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Surely, we\u2019re waiting for the upgraded look of India\u2019s fastest train!
