The oldest
working steam locomotives in the world, the Fairy Queen made
its maiden journey in the year 1855 for the erstwhile East Indian
Railway. And rightly so, the Fairy Queen today holds the Guinness
World  Record
for being the oldest locomotive in regular operation. It used
to travel on the Howrah-Raniganj line and later in Bihar till
1908. In July 1997, the Indian Railway restarted its operation
as a heritage train from Delhi to Alwar and from there the tourists
are taken to world famous Sariksa Wildlife Sanctuary. It operates
on the 2nd and the 4th Saturday of the months of October to
March.
The Fairy Queen has only one AC chair car coach, which can accommodate
a maximum of 50 tourists. There is also an attached pantry car
to provide on board catering services to its privileged passengers.
As an added attraction, the coach has a beautiful lounge in
the front, which provides a scenic sight of the countryside.
For your enjoyment numerous cultural programs are organized
on the evening of the first day at the Hotel Sariska Palace.
The destinations covered by the train are Delhi, Alwar and the
famous Tiger Reserve in Sariska. The two-day and one-night package
is a beautiful gift for all wildlife lovers and definitely worth
enjoying at least once in your lifetime.
