The Antique Silver Hand-Engraved Train Model was crafted by skilled artisans from Maharashtra. Maharashtra has a unique place in the field of silver metalworking. This vintage model is made of 92.5% silver and uses traditional techniques such as engraving, repoussé (reverse hammering), and a complex filigree work.

“DELHI – DELAWARE” train gifted to Biden

Not only this, this model train model also reflects the strong relationship between India and America. It has “DELHI – DELAWARE” written on the side of the main carriage and “INDIAN RAILWAYS” written on the side of the engine in Hindi and English. Just like it is written in the passenger trains of Indian Railways.

This craftsmanship has not only presented the unique craftsmanship of the artisans to the world, but also reflects the long history of Indian Railways and its global influences. The Indian Railway System, with its large network and diverse trains, is a symbol of Indian culture and tech development. For example, it is not just an object, but a confluence of culture and history. On this occasion, President Biden appreciated this unique gift of Prime Minister Modi and considered this train model as an important symbol in the direction of India-US relations.
