    According to railway officials, since it is a toy train, the number of seats will be kept low. Each coach will probably have 24 to 30 seats. The train will run between Shimla and Kalkar and there is no heat, so these coaches will be non-AC. Its seats will be convenient, extra space and 180 degree rotation. That means the seat can be rotated in the direction in which the train will run. Besides, preparations are being made to increase its speed. The existing toy train is 22 km long. Although the speed of the coach is less, the speed of Vistadom coach can be increased further.
