The Railways has painted a number of dark blue colour train coaches in yellowish tan and teak to give them a vibrant look.

According to a ministry statement, the Northern Railways has used a new colour scheme on ICF design sleeper coaches on the directions of the Railway Board.

"This new colour scheme will be first tried out on a limited number of coaches," the statement read.

The colour scheme was developed jointly by the National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad, and the Railways.

The coaches with the new colour scheme were inspected by Railway Minister Piyush Goyal, Railway Board Chairman Ashwani Lohani, and other senior officials at the New Delhi Station today.
