India’s first on-board Railway magazine

Rail Bandhu – A Brief This product is being conceptualised for the changing face of the

railways, the fast-moving super trains on the Rajdhani, Shatabdi and Duronto networks. The magazine will therefore, reflect the spirit of the frequent traveller, his aspirations in an emergent India, his connectedness to the changing world around him and more importantly to the great Indian family, which still uses the vast railway network to plan its holidays. Also the great Indian railway is a cultural concept than just representative of a mammoth piece of infrastructure. It is a microcosm of India’s ever evolving story. The romance of rail lies in these long journeys and the magazine should add to that experience.
