Western Railway Announces Special Trains From Mumbai To Ahmedabad For Coldplay Concert

After a power-packed Mumbai concert, Coldplay is now shifting their gears to Ahmedabad. The British rock band will be performing at the Narendra Modi Stadium on January 25 and 26 as a part of their 'Music of the Spheres' tour concert. While fans in Ahmedabad are eagerly awaiting to witness the musical extravaganza, others are busy scheduling their trips to the city. Sky-high airfares have become a menace. But the Western Railway authorities are set to provide relief for concert-goers wanting to attend the show. They have launched two special trains from Bandra to Ahmedabad to clear the extra rush of passengers.
