modern amenities and enhanced travel comfort, will be inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on January 26, 2025, coinciding with Republic Day celebrations.

This semi-high-speed train will be the first direct rail service between the national capital and Kashmir, covering over 800 kilometers in under 13 hours.

Departing from New Delhi at 7:00 PM, it will reach Srinagar by 8:00 AM the next day, with key stops at Jammu Tawi, Katra, and Banihal.

Ticket prices are expected to start at ₹2,000 for AC 3-tier, ₹2,500 for AC 2-tier, and ₹3,000 for First AC.

The train will feature a mix of 11 AC 3-tier coaches, 4 AC 2-tier coaches, and 1 First AC coach, ensuring a comfortable journey for passengers across various budgets.

The introduction of the Vande Bharat Sleeper train is a significant step in enhancing connectivity, promoting tourism, and strengthening economic ties between Kashmir and the rest of India.
The service promises a seamless and efficient travel experience, reflecting Indian Railways ICF commitment to modernization.

Useful:Oh ok fair enough... 👍👍
Sry I could not check till Srinagar. But I calculated that the fare till SVDK is supposed to be more or less the same as VB, assuming that catering service is included in the fare of this train. So its a better deal that the VB but it is on the higher side of the sleepers. Also the quality of food and other amenities would be quite comparable to AC classes in other trains. So till SVDK or JAT it might not be that worth it. But for the stretch after SVDK, this would maybe be quite suitable. (But other trains would receive extn. sooner or later and it would be interesting to see how this would perform.)

Now thats unfortunate, hopefully this train and others does not become target of their attacks. These trains are only for their benefit.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake.
