News India Live, Digital Desk: If you also get troubled by back pain and noise during long train journeys, then there is a great news for you. The Vande Bharat train which changed the definition of rail travel in India, is now sleeper version Also ready to run on the tracks.
Now don’t sit, travel in luxury lying down
The Vande Bharat that we have seen till now had only chair car facility, due to which it was good for day journey, but for night journey people used to look for Rajdhani or Duronto. Now Railways has found a solution to this. Vande Bharat Sleeper has been specially designed for those who want to travel long overnight journeys in comfort.
How is it different from Rajdhani Express?
Often people are asking whether this is a new train in name only? So the answer is – absolutely not. Its look and design feel like a luxury hotel room. Shocks will be very less and noise inside the cabin will be negligible. Apart from this, reading lights, charging points and luggage space for passengers have been designed very smartly.
The biggest question: What will the ticket cost?
Obviously, with so many features the first question that comes to mind is how loose will the pockets be? If sources are to be believed, the fare of Vande Bharat Sleeper may be slightly higher than Rajdhani Express. But considering the kind of facilities (like bio-toilets, advanced safety system and speed) available in it, this journey is going to be worth the money.
When and where will the first train start?
If everything goes well, its trial will be completed very soon. Initially it will be run on selected major routes, which will save a lot of time for passengers. The speed of the train can go up to 160 kilometers per hour, which means that the distance from Delhi to cities like Mumbai or Bengaluru will now be significantly reduced.
Overall, this new step of Railways is going to prove to be a boon for those who want to complete their journey in less time and with great comfort.
