First high speed train on Delhi-Agra sector on Nov 10


The first high-speed train between Delhi and Agra with a speed of 160 km per hour is expected to run on November 10 as Kapurthala Rail Coach Factory is all set to roll out the first rake of fourteen coaches of the train.
Rail Coach Factory (RCF) has manufactured four coaches of the high speed train so far and the work was going on war-footing to manufacture the remaining 10 coaches by November 10 to turn out the first rake, RCF General Manager Pramod Kumar said on Thursday.
The GM said the approximate cost of one high speed coach would be between Rs 2.25-2.50 crore.
He said that high speed coaches manufactured in RCF for Shatabdi and Rahdhani express trains are capable of running at the optimum speed of 160 kilometer per hour.
