Don’t miss this train for the world!

Is there any one place that offers the sight of the rich and diverse flora and fauna of India, all at once? Well, all the wild, endangered and beautiful species are on board a special train to meet the young and curious in Delhi. To revive an innovative exhibition on rail that started last year, Science Express Biodiversity (SEBS) is being relaunched in its second phase on Tuesday, 9 April.

It is a 16 coach train with eight coaches dedicated to interactive exhibits carrying shorts films, videos, kiosks and back lit panels to showcase the biodiversity of India. The highlight is the Joy Science Lab which is an open platform for students to perform guided experiments and revel in the myriad of activities thrown open to them.

A group of dignitaries are expected to grace the flag off ceremony from Safdarjung on 9 April; the expected list includes Minister of Environment and Forests, Jayanthi Natrajan and Chief Minister of Delhi, Sheila Dikshit.

This train will be stationed at the Pragati Maidan railway station from 10 to 13 April  for a free of cost exhibition of the biodiversity of India. It has on board a team of 40 young and qualified science intellectuals to facilitate the visitors throughout the journey.
