Nice album Khalid Bhai. Came to know lot about it.

Very informative set of pictures, thank you sir.

If you see the Mez level. You can have two toilets on the RHS of the vestibule side of the door as usual, and one on the passinger side. So 3 toilets on each side of the coach.

As the controlled discharge toilets have the discharge on the outside of the tracks not inside, there will not be interference with the bogies.

Sandeep, it was a crore for an entire rake, not just this coach ;-)

Stylish yes, but comfort level - takes a back seat I guess. compare this with the FCphoto taken by Vikas Singh in 2003: http://tinyurl.com/vSingh-ngFC-2003

I dont think it would be comfortable in this kind of arrangement.....poor leg space and seat orientation, no arm rest for middle passenger....ok for a short ride but good for chatting with your partner face to face.....

A crore for this !!! How on earth did they manage to spend a crore and get only this much in terms of luxury? For this sort of money there should be Swarovski Crystals as a part of the decor. There is nothing special other than the couches which at max would have cost a little over a lac.

Looks very comfortable !!!

Cool interiors!

@Jimmy,
The coach is divided into 2 halves, viz Cabin A and B. The one in focus in Cabin B capable of seating 12 passengers and Cabin A can seat 4 passengers. Cabin A was taken over by railway staff while Cabin B was left for the public. The door in the background leads to Cabin A. The toilet is situated behind me.
