Exclusive: 100 Vande Bharat trains by 2024; Indian Railways sets ball rolling for new train sets

印度铁路公司开始着手造新列车，到2024年将有100列“致敬印度号”列车

Indian Railways has set the ball rolling for manufacturing 100 Vande Bharat Express train sets by March 2024. PM Narendra Modi had in his Independence Day speech announced that 75 Vande Bharat trains will connect major towns by 15 August 2023. The national transporter has now issued the tender for propulsion systems and other equipment of 58 Vande Bharat rakes, learns TOI. A contract for equipment of 44 Vande Bharat rakes was already awarded to Medha Servo earlier this year. With this, Indian Railways aims to roll out 102 Vande Bharat trains by early 2024, a source told TOI.

印度铁路公司已经开始着手造100辆“致敬印度号”特快列车，在2024年3月之前完成。莫迪总理在独立日演讲中宣布，到2023年8月15日，75列“致敬印度”号列车将奔跑于主要城市之间。据《印度时报》报道，印度铁路公司现在已经为58列“致敬印度”号车厢的推进系统和其他设备发布招标。今年早些时候，一份44列“致敬印度”号设备的合同已经授予了Medha Servo。一位消息人士告诉《印度时报》，印度铁路公司计划在2024年初推出102列“致敬印度号”列车。

Vande Bharat is a luxury air-conditioned chair-car service which looks similar to high-speed trains. Designed for speeds of up to 160 kmph, and tested at 180 kmph, Vande Bharat trains are self-propelled "engineless" train sets. Its faster acceleration and deceleration results in reduced train travel time.

“致敬印度号”配备豪华的空调椅车厢，看起来类似于高铁列车。设计时速达160公里，测试时速达180公里，“致敬印度”号列车是自行推进的“无引擎”列车，加速和减速速度更快，从而减少了列车行驶时间。

Some of its passenger friendly features include; European-style seats, aircraft-style personalised reading lights, diffused LED lighting, GPS-based infotainment systems, modular bio-toilets, fully sealed gangways for dust-free environment, centrally controlled entry/ext doors with sliding footsteps, mini pantry, cushioned luggage racks, 360 degree rotating seats in Executive class, divyang friendly toilet and automatic sliding cabin doors.

列车上有一些乘客友好的功能包括：欧洲风格的座椅，飞机风格的个性化阅读灯，漫射LED照明，基于GSP的信息娱乐系统，模块化生物厕所，完全密封的无尘环境通道，中央控制的进出门，滑动踏板，迷你食品室，软垫行李架，360度旋转的行政舱座椅，divyang友好厕所和自动滑动舱门。

The tender, accessed by TOI, is for design, development, manufacture, supply, integration, testing and commissioning of IGBT-based 3-phase propulsion, control and other equipment of the Vande Bharat rakes. It will be closed in October this year. The pre-bid conference for this will be held in September.

招标旨在设计、开发、制造、供应、集成、测试和调试基于IGBT的三相推进、控制和其他设备，将于今年10月关闭。该项目的招标前会议将于9月举行。

According to the tender, tentatively, 30 rakes will be manufactured at ICF Chennai and 14 each at MCF Raebareli and RCF Kapurthala. The first two Vande Bharat trains running on the Delhi-Varanasi and Delhi-Katra routes have been manufactured at ICF, Chennai.

根据标书，暂定30列车厢将在金奈ICF生产，14列将在MCF Raebareli和RCF Kapurthala生产。在德里-瓦拉纳西和德里-卡特拉线路上运行的前两列“致敬印度”号列车是在金奈的ICF生产的。

Kabul Se Pathan

Only Modi can do it, Others will take India to Bullock Cart era.

只有莫迪能做到，其他人会把印度带回牛车时代。

We need bullock cart. Petrol prices are very high.

Corrupt congress kutra

Vande Mataram. Jai Bharat. Jai BJP. Jai Modiji.

致敬印度，印度必胜，人民党必胜，莫迪必胜！

Dr Vidyadhar Yellutla

Instead of rewarding Modi who is transforming India with 100 lakh crore rs in infrastructure, still some educated forum members here disregard his performance and advocate in favor of poor performer Rahul baba.

莫迪用10万亿卢比建设基础设施，改造印度，一些有文化的印度人不但没有夸奖莫迪，反而无视他的表现，支持表现不佳的拉胡尔。

Rishi Vijan

Well done Prime minister.. So proud of you

干得好，总理…真为你骄傲

Modi invented the train? Why modi selling India's assets?

这列车是莫迪发明的吗?

为什么莫迪要出售印度资产?

Even more important achievement of current Govt is the the conversion of all trains to 100% bio Toilet, ensuring that fecal matter is not dropped on tracks. In the long run this will not save tracks from corrosion, it will reduce the spread of many diseases that are transmitted by feces.

当前印度政府更重要的任务是把所有火车上的厕所都改造成生物厕所，确保粪便不会掉在轨道上。从长远来看，这并不能拯救轨道免受腐蚀，但能减少许多由粪便传播的疾病的传播。

Swatantrate Bhagawati

Good going! Modi hai toh Mumkin hai! Hope citizens also upgrade their civic sense and hygine habits to use such infrastructure!

干得好！莫迪万岁！

希望市民也能提高公民意识，保持卫生习惯

Bharat is Building!

印度在建设！

Anil Kumar

Modi has made train fares equal to Air fares, even 3AC tickets of Premium trains are costlier than Air fares if Air ticket is booked in advance. Pure Bhasan Jivi, so Arrogant he doesn't care for anyone. ...

Railways is being destroyed.....

莫迪让火车票卖得和机票一样贵，如果提前预订机票，比火车空调坐票还便宜。

铁路正在走向穷途末路.....

peter Fernandez

all the best team Modi

祝莫迪团队一切顺利

Thanks to Modi government.

多亏了莫迪政府。
