The train itself has five coaches, including two that serve as operation theatres, where surgeries can be conducted on five patients simultaneously, a sitting room for doctors, paramedics and technicians, recovery room and a sterilisation area. Procedures performed include cataracts, middle ear surgery and plastic surgery for cleft lip and post burn contractures, said Gourh. Around 600 surgeries are conducted during every project.
