We have come across this information and it is good that we have kind a crew over the train also as we see in the airplane. But our country really appreciate the female freedom and how the travelers will behave with them. I am sure our government will think about the security of these hostesses who make your journey easy in the train and when you reach your destination you feel that you just leave one home and came to other.
