The GIPR’s Poona Race Special trains had vestibuled rakes back in 1906. Later, the prestigious Deccan Queen (Bombay – Poona), starting in 1930, regularly had a vestibuled rake.

Today most long-distance trains are vestibuled. NG trains, because of the short lengths of rakes (6-8, sometimes just 4 coaches) are not vestibuled, the sole exception being the ‘Royal Saloon’, a tourist train run by the SECR’s Nagpur division.
