Vande Bharat Sleeper Train: After the launch of the Vande Bharat Express, everyone across the country is eagerly awaiting the launch of a sleeper train. The government is expected to launch the Vande Bharat Sleeper in the last week of November. Initially, it was expected to operate during the festive season in October, but that didn’t happen. Now, news is emerging that it will operate in the last month of November.
The Vande Bharat Sleeper Train will prove to be very helpful for long journeys. Equipped with modern technology, this train will be the centre of attention. Designed with stunning colour and design, the work is now underway to rectify the train’s shortcomings. However, a date for the train’s launch has not yet been finalised.
How many coaches will the Vande Bharat Sleeper have?
Eager to hit the tracks, the Vande Bharat Sleeper will be stunning in its design. Once its specifications are met, it will be operational by the last week of November. As soon as the train opens for passengers, there will be a queue of people waiting to book tickets. According to the Ministry, 16 coaches will be added to this train. The Vande Bharat Sleeper coaches may be equipped with state-of-the-art amenities.
The Railways are incorporating some of the most impressive features into this train. The maximum speed of this train can reach 180 kilometres per hour, meaning the journey time will be significantly reduced. Equipped with all the amenities, this train will make the journey very comfortable. The berths in this train are expected to be quite spacious. The fare for the Vande Bharat Sleeper is also expected to be significantly higher than other trains.
How much is the fare for a 180-kph train?
While the Vande Bharat Sleeper will be as fast as the wind, the fare is also expected to be significantly higher than other trains. The ticket price of the Vande Bharat Sleeper must be lower than that of an aeroplane. According to a report, the fare for this train may be approximately 20 per cent higher than that of the Rajdhani Express.
This means that it may be out of reach of ordinary people. Nevertheless, it will be possible to cover more distance in less time. The first class cabin of the train is expected to be absolutely stunning with great design, comfortable seats, amazing features like charging points, reading lights and bottle holders.
