New Delhi. North-East India is going to get the first Vande Bharat Express soon. It is possible that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will flag off the country’s first semi-high speed train on 14 April. This train will run from Jalpaiguri (West Bengal) to Guwahati (Assam). Currently Vande Bharat operates between Jalapaiguri and Howrah. Vande Bharat will be run at a speed of 110 km per hour on this route. According to the capacity of the tracks, Vande Bharat cannot be run there at a higher speed. However, Vande Bharat has been taken up to 180 km per hour during the trial.
Its operation speed is 160 kilometers per hour. However, mostly it is run at a speed of 130 kmph. Behind this is also the capacity of the tracks.
