Pakistan Railways has declared the return of the “Safari Tourist Train,” an innovative project meant to highlight the natural and cultural splendor of the Potohar Region.
The trip will start at Islamabad’s Golra Station, which is home to the Islamabad Railway Museum and is rich in history from the British era.
This museum gives visitors an insight into the rich history of the railway in the area with its unique collection of railway relics, which includes vintage steam engines and historic railway kitchens.
The Safari Train will set off on a charming journey from Golra Station, traveling through numerous important railway stations, including Hasan Abdal, Attock, and Attock Khurd. The oldest railway museum is located in Attock Khurd, which makes it stand out and gives the tour even more historical value. Passengers may get important insights into how the railway system has changed throughout time from this museum.
The principal aim of the tourist train effort is to stimulate tourism within the area and acquaint visitors with the cultural and historical legacy linked to the railway.
Through providing travelers with an unparalleled and engaging experience, the Safari Train hopes to significantly increase tourism and cultivate an awareness for the railway’s role in the growth of the region.
As the Safari Train traverses the historic iron girder bridge over the Indus River, travelers will get the chance to take in the breath-taking view. This famous bridge adds a sense of adventure and discovery to the entire experience while acting as a crucial link between the provinces of Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
The rebirth of the Safari Tourist Train seems to be an intriguing endeavor that will provide travelers with an unforgettable travel experience by fusing historical exploration with breathtaking scenery.
With this program, Pakistan Railways hopes to commemorate the rich history of the Potohar Region’s railway system in addition to promoting travel.
