"Many years ago when I had the
priviledge of meeting Pandit Nehru, he suggested that India's vast railway system could well be an ideal way of delivering health and other services to rural areas throughout the Sub-continent. LIFELINE EXPRESS is a brilliant implementation of that idea with
far reaching consequences in preventing or curing disability and in promoting primary health and immunisation services. This innovative project is already arousing considerable interest in other countries and could well be the beginning of a whole new approach to health delivery.

" The "Lifeline Express" has already shown itself to be a true
"life-line" for many thousands of people. However, it is not the train
itself, for all its excellent facilities, which provides the life-line
to many people, but rather it acts as a catalyst to liberate so much
compassion, energy and generosity in many hundreds of people. As we look
to the future we hope and pray that the synergistic effect of this Lifeline Express will continue to be an agent for healing, for health
education, for immunization and for breaking the vicious circle of poverty and disability."
