The newly inaugurated mini train service at Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP) earned upwards of '40,000 in ticket sales from nearly 500 visitors on Sunday. Rides were free on Saturday, when the train was inaugurated by MP Piyush Goyal.

A park official stated that the current footfall was on the lower side as the exam season was on. “We are expecting a significant surge in the coming days,” the official said. SGNP visitors can board either of the two Vanrani trains for a 2.5 km ride from the Krishnagiri station from 9 am to 5 pm, excluding a lunch break from 1 pm to 1.30 pm.
