Indian Railways has been consistently putting in efforts in improving the condition of railways in our country. The main reason for that has been the general people of the nation who use it daily. The railways are the main commuter of the general middle public of the country. So, recently Railways has been trying to improve the experience of the people by introducing trains like Vande Bharat. There have also been efforts to run this train on multiple circuits. 

Until now, 6 Vande Bharat trains are running in our country. The trains have been introduced for the people with some attractive features. One of the prominent features has been the ability of the train to run at a top speed of 160 mph. But due to the outdated infrastructure, the trains at running at a much-reduced speed. 

Now, Indian Railways is planning to introduce Vande Bharat 2.0. In this train, there will be an increase of top seed by 20 kmph. But still, there is doubt that whether it will happen in the real world or not.

So, to improve the condition of the infrastructure. The government is planning to invest 17000 crore rupees in the Delhi to Kolkata circuit. This will improve the performance of the Vande Bharat train on the route drastically. But apart from that, there have also been questions regarding the safety of the train. It is because there have been various cattle-related incidents with trains. This has raised various questions related to safety. To counter these discussions are being made that will reduce such incidents in the future. There is also work in progress related to the implementation of Kavach in all the trains. This technology will specially be incorporated into the Vande Bharat trains. This technology will improve the capability of locomotives to avoid train collisions.

There are also efforts to manufacture sleeper coaches for the Vande Bharat trains. The new version of the prestigious Made in India train will also have a more compact 75-seater chair car coach. These trains are also being considered as a replacement for the ageing Shatabdi trains. It also acts as a flag bearer for the faster future of the Indian Railways. The trains also ensure safe travel for the passengers as they have automatic doors that can only be opened and closed from the locomotive. 

In recent times, there have also been some positive changes in the Indian Railways. The first one is the implementation of electric locomotives all over the country. Now, there are only a very few challenging routes where environmental hurdles are making it difficult. Now, there is also an implementation of 3AC economy class in some trains. This new class will make the journey more comfortable for the public as the new coaches have better seats and better air conditioning. There is also better waste management in these new coaches and there is also a greater number of seats in these coaches.

For a change, there is also a plan for developing various railway stations all across the country. The new railway stations especially in the bigger cities will likely provide an airport-like experience for the passengers. In the end, these passengers will bring about some much-needed freshness to the Indian Railways, the lifeline of the country.
