The North Western Railway Zone (NWR) has been actively contributing to the development of semi-high-speed rail travel in western India by operating Vande Bharat Express trains on important routes. These trains strengthen passenger mobility across Rajasthan and its neighboring states by delivering faster, cleaner, and more reliable travel options. Cities such as Jaipur, Chandigarh, Agra, Jodhpur, Udaipur, and Sabarmati are now better connected, meeting the evolving travel needs of professionals, students, tourists, and pilgrims alike.
Vande Bharat Express trains under North Western Railways offer a well-balanced mix of convenience, technology, and efficiency. With features such as automatic doors, onboard infotainment systems, ergonomic seating, ambient lighting, and bio-vacuum toilets, these trains provide a high-quality alternative to conventional express trains and long-distance buses. Their ability to reduce journey times while maintaining passenger comfort makes them a strong preference across a broad spectrum of travelers.
