... an express train with a healthy difference - chartered to trundle along the Indian Railway tracks. The LIFELINE EXPRESS (JEEVAN REKHA), a Hospital on Wheels, is an innovative idea conceived and developed by Impact India in fraternity with the Indian Railways.

The train serves as a messiah of health and in turn happiness for the estimated 90 million handicapped persons in India. For the yet unaffected, it will spell clearly the message :

 " prevention is better than cure "
