History of Vande Bharat Express:

The Vande Bharat Express  is an Indian semi-high speed, intercity, EMU train operated by the Indian Railways. It was designed and manufactured by Integral Coach Factory (ICF) at Perambur, Chennai under the Indian Government’s Make in India initiative, over a span of 18 months. 

The unit cost is estimated to be 40% less than a similar train imported from Europe. The train was launched on 15 February 2019, and the service was named 'Vande Bharat Express' on 27 January 2019.

Vande Bharat Express (VB2) is designed to be capable of running at a maximum speed of 160 km/h (100 mph). The Vande Bharat Express exterior is of aerodynamic design, narrowing at each end of the train, designed to combat air resistance. It also has a driver cabin at each end, allowing for faster turnaround at terminating stations. The train has 16 passenger cars, with a seating capacity of 1,128 passengers. Two of the center compartments are first class compartments that seat 52 each, with the rest being coach compartments seating 78 each.

Alternate coaches are motorised to ensure even distribution of power and to help in quicker acceleration and deceleration. The gangways are interconnected and fully sealed to allow better mobility between coaches and to reduce noise respectively. The train also features GPIS-based passenger information system, bio-vacuum toilets, and rotational seats which can be aligned in the direction of travel. Train 18 employs a regenerative braking system.
