Rajadhani Express provides premium services on several routes in Sri Lanka, in partnership with Sri Lanka Railways. Although it does not yet operate its own trains for scheduled services, it operates carriages that are attached to trains operated by Sri Lanka Railways. OverviewAlthough Rajadhani Express carriages are attached to Sri Lanka Railways-operated trains, Rajadhani provides on-board services and markets it as a separate operation. The service is aimed at middle and upper middle-income and tourist markets. Sri Lanka Railways generates revenue by charging Rajadhani a standard first-class fare per seat. Rajadhani charges an additional premium on its passengers beyond the standard fare to provide its services.[1] HistoryThe Blue Line Company launched Rajadhani Express on October 1, 2011, with its first service on a Kandy intercity train. On the same day, a competing service was launched by Expolanka, called ExpoRail.[2] ServicesRajadhani Express serves three routes, on two major rail lines in Sri Lanka.[3]
