Electric trains in Sri Lanka... Not in dreams?

The Railway Department has decided to commence electric train services in the country within the next two years.

It was a shocking good news if so. Of course as in the other projects this will also make some politioans and their families and there generations a billionares and we will end up paying the cost. But I am happy atleast the infrastructure is getting better. Sri Lanka been a small island still it takes so many hours to go from one place to the other due to lack of good train service. So i welcome this move.

Exporail is also a one good move though it is run by a private company within the government trains.
www.exporail.lk and good that they have online booking.
