Another Present From The Modi Government To Train Passengers In These Places Is The Mini Vande Bharat Express
The Modi Government may soon introduce the tiny version of the semi-high-speed trains following the success of the Vande Bharat Express Trains in India. Soon, the Indian Railways intends to operate this eight-coach Vande Bharat Express, which will be half the size of the larger Vande Bharat Express.
The 16-coach Vande Bharat Express, which currently runs between major cities and takes about 6-7 hours to complete, will be replaced by a shorter-distance, 4-5 hour variant. The railroads might operate this train in remote areas with low passenger load factors. Amritsar-Jammu, Kanpur-Jhansi, and Nagpur-Pune are a few instances.
By March or April 2023, the Indian Railways hopes to launch the first tiny Vande Bharat Express as a pilot. The small Vande Bharat train could be introduced on an all-Indian scale by the Ministry of Railways if the pilot experiment is a success.
With the introduction of the tiny Vande Bharat Express, the Railways would not only be able to serve routes with faster travel times, but they may also try to boost their earnings.
The 8-coach train’s layout and design are nearly complete, and the Integral Coach Factory is creating a prototype of it (ICF).
Sleeper Vande Bharat Express
In addition to the miniature Vande Bharat Express, the sleeper version of the semi-high-speed train will soon be available to customers. Concerned officials have announced that the Vande Bharat Express would now take the position of the Shatabdi Express, with the sleeper version serving as a substitute for Rajdhani Express trains.
The sleeper version of the Vande Bharat Express, which has been making headlines and drawing passengers since its debut, will be built to run at a speed of 220 kilometers per hour, the authorities stated.
Vande Bharat Express Trains in India
There are eight Vande Bharat Express trains operating in the nation at the moment, connecting Secunderabad, Visakhapatnam, Howrah, New Jalpaiguri, Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Katra, Bilaspur, Nagpur, Mumbai Central, Gandhinagar, Mysuru, MGR Chennai Central, Amb Andaura, and Varanasi with New Delhi.
