India’s Night Rail Revolution Begins: Faster, Smarter, Sleeper Comfort

The introduction of Vande Bharat Sleeper Trains has been a significant milestone in the innovation process of Indian Railways and a new epoch in high-speed and overnight travel. The maiden route is the first service linking Howrah and Kamakhya, flagged off by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, which reduces the transit time of long-distance services at reasonable fares, providing high-end comfort. This train is made to accommodate the current generation of passengers and is a high-speed, safe, and convenient train that enables passengers to have a comfortable night on the train.

Designed for Speed, Comfort, and a Premium Experience

The new service is highly reduced in travel time with a top speed of 180 kmph, though that is not anticipated, but likely to be at 120-130 kmph. The air-conditioned coaches are also fully equipped with ergonomically designed berths and a hi-tech suspension system to provide a smooth, quiet ride. Modern disinfectant technology ensures hygiene, whereas the native Kavach protection system and onboard cameras are used to improve safety. The Vande Bharat Sleeper Trains are bound to offer a travelling experience comparable to high-end flights with automated doors and airline-style food services, which will serve dishes representing the local culture. Vande Bharat Sleeper Trains will transform long-distance railway transport of millions of people in India as the country develops a high-speed rail network.
