The specially branded Steel Express had its inaugural run from Tatanagar marking the year-long centenary celebration of Jamshedpur. Through this branding initiative, the Steel Express, which will run between Tatanagar and Howrah, will exhibit the legacy, culture, and journey milestones of the steel city under the theme of ‘Jamshedpur on Rails’. The inaugural event was graced by the presence of Chhatrasal Singh, Divisional Railway Manager, Chakradharpur, as the Chief Guest and Anand Sen, President, TQM & Steel Business, Tata Steel. Speaking on the occasion, Anand Sen said, “The Steel Express is a perfect example of the role Indian Railways plays in the life of almost every citizen of India. By connecting two of the most important cities in eastern India, the Steel Express is indeed a lifeline for both citizens and businesses like Tata Steel. In many ways, this train is an integral part of Jamshedpur. We are delighted to share the story of Jamshedpur through this uniquely branded Steel Express.”

In his address, Chhatrasal Singh said, “It is heartening to know that the Steel Express which serves as a gateway for the entire area has been branded with the theme that celebrates 100 years of Jamshedpur.”
