Kerala MP John Brittas requested the Railway Minister to permanently introduce the Ernakulam-Bengaluru Vande Bharat train service. He cited the train's high occupancy rate (105%) during its initial run as a special train. He also suggested extending the route to Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala's capital, to improve connectivity with Bengaluru.

केरल के राज्यसभा सदस्य जॉन ब्रिट्टास ने रेल मंत्री से एर्नाकुलम-बेंगलुरु वंदे भारत ट्रेन सेवा को स्थायी रूप से शुरू करने का अनुरोध किया है। उन्होंने विशेष ट्रेन के रूप में चलने के दौरान 100% से अधिक के अधिभोग दर का उदाहरण दिया। उन्होंने यह भी सुझाव दिया कि सेवा को...

For that extn to happen one is that it should go via 2 routes:-
1. TVC-ERS-HSRA-BNC (this route distance is 773kms which is close to impossible unless full stretch is 130kmph which is never gonna happen)(instead of going via TPT-JTJ which distance is 813kms)
2. TVC-TEN-MDU-SA-HSRA-BNC (distance is 735kms and same conditions should be present as above mentioned).....

So

looking at this, what I think can happen is that, they may (if extn approved) have tri-weekly service and have a day-off.... let's wait and see how they're gonna pull this off incase it gets approved....🤔👍

The Ernakulam-Bengaluru Vande Bharat special train has been suspended due to the failure of authorities to issue a notification extending the service.

Southwest Railway hasn't made a decision yet. Meanwhile, several other train services have been cancelled or delayed due to maintenance works near Angamaly railway station. Additionally, several special trains have been added from Bengaluru and Chennai for the Onam vacation season.

एर्नाकुलम-बेंगलुरु वंदे भारत स्पेशल ट्रेन को निलंबित कर दिया गया है क्योंकि अधिकारियों ने सेवा का विस्तार करने वाला अधिसूचना जारी नहीं किया है। 25 जुलाई को शुरू हुई यह ट्रेन, बहुत अधिक बुकिंग दर के साथ चल रही थी। दक्षिणी रेलवे ने बेंगलुरु से ट्रेन के प्रस्थान समय को...

The Indian Railways has revised its Vande Bharat train order. Originally planned for 120 sets with 16 coaches each, the order has been changed to 80 sets with 24 coaches each. The first prototype of the new model is expected in September 2025, followed by the second in November. This new...

train will be manufactured by Kinet Railway Solutions, a joint venture of RVNL, Metrowagonmash, and LES. The project aims to eventually produce 2,500 high-speed trains by 2047, replacing older train sets. The use of aluminium instead of steel is expected to improve speed and cost efficiency.

भारतीय रेलवे ने अपने वंदे भारत ट्रेन के ऑर्डर में बदलाव किया है। पहले, 120 सेट बनने थे, हर सेट में 16 कोच थे, लेकिन अब यह ऑर्डर बदलकर 80 सेट हो गया है, और हर सेट में 24 कोच होंगे। इस मॉडल का पहला प्रोटोटाइप सितंबर 2025 में आएगा, और...

दूसरा नवंबर में। यह नया ट्रेन किनेट रेलवे सॉल्यूशन्स बनाएगा, जो कि आरवीएनएल, मेट्रोवागनमैश और एलईएस का संयुक्त उद्यम है। इस प्रोजेक्ट का मकसद 2047 तक 2,500 हाई-स्पीड ट्रेन बनाना है, जिसके साथ ही पुराने ट्रेन सेट बदल दिए जाएँगे। इसमें स्टील की जगह एल्यूमीनियम का इस्तेमाल किया जाएगा, जिससे स्पीड और कॉस्ट एफिशिएंसी में सुधार आएगा।

read full article... Will there be a change in Vande Bharat after August 26? Malayalees on high expectations

The Ernakulam-Bengaluru Vande Bharat Express, launched on August 1st, has seen a surge in demand, particularly during the Onam season. Passengers have requested the service be extended beyond its current August 26th deadline. The train is packed on weekends, and there have been previous calls for it to become a...

permanent service, but no action has been taken. While a stop at K.R. Puram was added for the train leaving Cantonment, benefiting residents in areas like Whitefield, there are concerns that the Vande Bharat caters primarily to the wealthy. Passengers are advocating for the inclusion of at least two general compartments for those who cannot afford higher-class tickets. They are also requesting the ability to buy tickets directly at the station, not just for pre-booked reservations.

१ अगस्त को शुरू हुई एर्नाकुलम-बेंगलुरु वंदे भारत एक्सप्रेस की मांग काफी बढ़ गई है, खासकर ओणम सीजन के दौरान। यात्रियों ने सेवा को 26 अगस्त के बाद भी चलाए रखने की मांग की है। शनिवार और रविवार को ट्रेन में भारी भीड़ देखी जाती है। पहले भी यात्रियों ने...

इस रूट पर वंदे भारत को नियमित सेवा बनाने की मांग की थी, लेकिन इस संबंध में कोई कार्रवाई नहीं की गई। कैंटोनमेंट से चलने वाली ट्रेन के लिए के.आर. पुरम पर एक स्टॉप जोड़ा गया था, जिससे व्हाइटफील्ड जैसे क्षेत्रों के लोगों को लाभ हुआ, लेकिन एक ओर यह भी शिकायत है कि वंदे भारत केवल समाज के अभिजात वर्ग के लिए ही है। यात्री पूछ रहे हैं कि क्या रेलवे आम लोगों के लिए कम से कम दो सामान्य डिब्बे शामिल नहीं कर सकता। कुछ का मानना है कि वंदे भारत को भी स्टेशन पर सीधे टिकट लेने की व्यवस्था करनी चाहिए, न कि केवल उन लोगों के लिए जो पहले से आरक्षित करते हैं।

Passengers chahte hain ki kam se kam do general compartments bhi train mein hon, jisse un logon ko bhi safaar karne mein aasani ho, jinko upper class ka ticket afford nahi kar sakte. Aur unki yeh bhi demand hai ki train mein ticket direct station se bhi le sakne chaiye, sirf online booking wale logon ke liye nahi.
