An old coach, provided by Titagarh Rail Systems Limited (TRSL), headquartered in Kolkata, has been redesigned into a fully air-conditioned dining space. It is located near the Pune District Court’s Family Court area. Officials said that the area was chosen based on its proximity to the Pune District Court Metro Station.
