Treat To Eyes: Indian Railways` Saffron-Coloured Vande Bharat Express Train Hits Tracks

[NG Missile Vessels]

The Indian Railways will soon launch the new saffron-coloured Vande Bharat Express in India, pictures of which were recently shared by the Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw during his visit to the Integrated Coach Factory in Chennai. He inspected the new rake and announced that the saffron-coloured semi-high speed train is inspired by the tricolour of India. Now for the first time, the Vande Bharat Express has been spotted to have hit the railway tracks outside the ICF manufacturing unit. The new saffron Vande Bharat Express is not yet operational and is currently stationed at ICF, where Vande Bharat trains are manufactured, reported ANI.

Railway officials earlier announced that the 28th rake of the Indian-built semi-high-speed Vande Bharat Express will be 'saffron' in colour. A total of 25 Vande Bharat Express trains are operational in India now, while two more Vande Bharat rakes in the traditional white and blue livery are already manufactured. "The colour of this 28th rake is being changed on a trial basis," they said. It was earlier expected that the 28th rake will be made operational on the Independence Day, on August 15.

However, later reports suggested that August 19 will be the date when the new saffron-train will be inaugurated. However, it is further delayed and there's no official news on when it will carry the first set of passengers. Union minister earlier said that the new colour of the 28th rake of the indigenous train is "inspired by Indian Tricolour". He said that 25 improvements have done in the Vande Bharat trains.

"This is a concept of Make In India, (which means) designed in India, by our own engineers, and technicians. So whatever feedback we are receiving from the field units, regarding ACs, toilets, etc., during the operation of Vande Bharat, all those improvements are being used for making changes in the design," Vaishnaw said in a press briefing.


"A new safety feature, 'anti climbers', or anti-climbing devices, on which we are working, were also reviewed today. These will be standard features in all the Vande Bharat and other trains," he added. It is pertinent to note that India's semi-high-speed train set, now offers its services in all rail-electrified states across the country.


The first Vande Bharat Express was flagged off on February 15, 2019, by the Prime Minister, running between New Delhi and Varanasi. Manufactured at the Integral Coach Factory (ICF) in Chennai, the train set symbolizes the 'Make-In-India' initiative and showcases India's engineering prowess.

I have seen several beautiful trains in Europe in orange color and its shades. This train is an absolute beauty

Looks old and disgusting. Bilal9 grandfather used to ride on trains a lot more beautiful and faster than this piece of Junk. Bangladesh is a lot richer than India and can afford trains that Indians can only dream about.
Balton has already made Maglev trains that they will be exporting to poor countries like India and Somalia.

He should be happy at the news. All cloth seat covers, bedsheets etc will be imported from BD. Also all train employees can afford new chaddi and socks so Lungi exports and per capita income will go up.

Oh come on bro, it may look cool, but I have multiple family members working on the project and it experiences stall after stall.

It's virtually a cashcow now, being government backed, each project manager spends vast sums of money milking it.

It won't be done for another 7 years at least.

Modern architecture and design is an atrocity, the steam trains have more charm and uniqueness surrounding it. Personally, I wish that they kept those trams from back in the day.

No originality or innovation whatsoever, just wants to copy Europe and America and scream to the world that they are on an "equal measure". India is thy name.

 

[xeuss]

Saffron colored train will still need a GREEN signal to go

Lol. Dumb mullahs want somehow to be relevant. It is just shameful.

The point of the project wasnt to innovate or be original, it was to deliver an upgrade to the current trains which lack comfort, safety and aesthetics and this is a big upgrade in at least comfort and aesthetics, safety part is yet to be tested. The train also gets rid of the class hierarchies in old coaches where the AC coach has AC, beds, clean toilets etc and general class is filthy, no beds, no AC etc, the new trains are way more standardized, -All AC and much lesser difference in comfort between higher and lower priced coaches.

Innovation should not be expected from a country which has a $26-2700 per capita income. You can rant that they look mundane and boring you don't like the modern look and what no, but thats just you..,we won't be living in the past just so your precious bitch *** can come by every once in a while to enjoy looking at old trams and trains. Its a dumb thing to say anyway. Everything that is modern now will be vintage 50-60 years in the future, if everyone keeps old things, world will be overrun with crap. Apart from some few wonders like Macchu Picchu, Pyramids, Petra, Colleseum, 1000 year old temples/churches/mosques etc nothing old is worth keeping, they are only special because we still don't know how people built those things. Even Taj Mahal is nothing special. Everything that is past its lifetime should be destroyed.

Beauty .

HS2 is more than 20 years from now IF IT DOES NOT GET CANCELLED . There is every chance that HS2 will be culled as soon as we realise we CANNOT AFFORD IT. Already parts of HS2 have been cancelled.


India will have bullet train before UK does . That IS GUAREENTEED.

India's Bullet train from Mumbai to Ahmedabad to be ready BEFORE HS2

Vande Bharat trains ARE A REALITY TODAY not 20 years from now maybe !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

God forbid, if a Muslim dies in an accident with any saffron colour train.

Dear friend @hatehs will create atleast 10 threads against these Hindu trains, with full support of some of his followers on pdf.

One of your hindutva extremist police murdered Indian Muslims on trains just a few weeks ago
