Hyderabad on track for Vande Bharat trains

HYDERABAD: Hyderabad will become one of the major hubs for the 400 new generation, semi-high speed Vande Bharat Express trains connecting most of major and medium sized cities in the next three years, SCR General Manager Sanjeev Kishore said on Thursday.

These trains will steadily be introduced in all zones. At present, Vande Bharat Express trains were connecting New Delhi with Varanasi and Vaishnodevi in northern Jammu. “These trains will be a better version of high-end technology used for travelling between major cities. Hyderabad will be a hub which will gradually connect all major and medium sized cities. In the next phase, not only chair-car, but also sleeper coaches will be introduced in the Vande Bharat trains,” the SCR general manager said.
