A new rail coach restaurant was inaugurated here at the Uzan Bazar riverfront by the Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR), in an effort to offer passengers a “unique dining experience”. The initiative is part of NFR’s broader vision to transform decommissioned train coaches into aesthetically designed restaurants with a touch of local heritage, said a release issued here on Tuesday.
The rail coach restaurants aim to provide a “nostalgic railway dining ambience while catering to the needs of passengers, tourists and residents alike”, it said. At present, 17 such restaurants are operational across several locations and major stations of NFR, including the newly inaugurated one.
