It takes close to a month to roll out an eight-coach train and close to 4 coaches are manufactured per day. With about 30 per cent female employees, these pride on wheels get manufactured at the Integral Coach Factory in Chennai. In the train, every alternate coach has a traction motor that is of 7000 KW power which is equal to two locomotives. These trains can travel at a speed of 180 km/hr.
