To keep pace with booming passenger demand, Indian Railways is embarking on a Rs 1 lakh crore makeover! Over the next 15 years, they’ll gradually wave goodbye to old, creaky trains and welcome in 7,000-8,000 brand new ones. This massive upgrade, revealed by Railways Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, will see tenders worth Rs 1 lakh crore rolled out in phases, ensuring a smoother, safer, and more modern ride for millions. So, brace yourself for a transformation India’s railways are about to enter a new era!

In a triumph of human ingenuity, Indian Railways is conquering the Himalayas! Their ambitious Kashmir rail link project, a 111-km behemoth, faces its toughest test in Tunnel-1, a 3.2 km marvel snaking through the treacherous Trikuta Hills. But visionary engineers have devised a groundbreaking tunneling method, undeterred by the imposing terrain.

Centre Plans To Roll Out 75 Vande Bharat Trains
The government plans to roll out 75 Vande Bharat trains by March next year and is also keen to run sleeper versions of the trains on long-distance routes as an alternative to Rajdhani Express trains.

Once the Jammu to Srinagar railway line is completed very soon, Vande Bharat will also be run on that,” Vaishnaw told news agency PTI. He said the Jammu-Srinagar railway line is expected to start within this financial year.

This train has been designed in a unique way so that they run very smoothly in those temperatures and altitude, Vaishnaw said. According to a survey, Vande Bharat express trains have been popular amongst the youth and senior citizens alike for comfort and speed.
