Vande Bharat trains are the new rage in India. It has become a symbol of a modern and young nation. The high fares are no deterrent to experience a one-of-its kind travel in the Indian Railways. With the 18th train flagged off between Dehradun and Delhi, 77 more trains will be rolled out by this financial year. 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.
