Say goodbye to exhausting 12-15 hour journeys between Patna and Delhi. Indian Railways is all set to revolutionize long-distance train travel with the launch of the New Sleeper Vande Bharat Express—slashing the journey time down to just 9 hours! This is not just a speed upgrade; it's a transformational step for millions of passengers traveling between Bihar and the national capital.
The upcoming Sleeper Vande Bharat Express is a high-speed, semi-bullet train equipped with luxurious sleeper berths, intelligent lighting, modern restrooms, Wi-Fi, CCTV surveillance, and bio-vacuum toilets — making overnight travel not just faster but incredibly comfortable.
✅ Top Speed: 160–180 km/hr
🛏️ Class: Sleeper AC coaches (no chair cars)
💡 Facilities: Charging points, entertainment screens, 3-tier & 2-tier berths
Currently, the fastest train — Rajdhani Express — takes around 12–13 hours. But the new Sleeper Vande Bharat aims to cut it down to just 9 hours — a feat achieved through upgraded tracks, minimal halts, and cutting-edge engineering.
🛤️ Proposed Stops: Patna – Buxar – Pt. Deendayal Upadhyay Jn. – Kanpur – Delhi
⏱️ Travel Time: ~9 Hours
🚆 Expected Launch: By End of 2025 (as per railway sources)
Boost to Business Travel: Entrepreneurs, traders, students, and professionals will benefit from faster connectivity.
Medical & Educational Tourism: Patients and students traveling to Delhi will save valuable time and money.
Tourism Growth: Easier access for tourists between Bihar’s Buddhist circuit and Delhi’s heritage spots.
While IRCTC hasn’t officially announced the fares yet, it’s expected to be slightly higher than Rajdhani but significantly more value-driven considering speed and comfort.
Class | Expected Fare (INR) |
---|---|
AC 3 Tier | ₹2,000 – ₹2,500 |
AC 2 Tier | ₹2,800 – ₹3,200 |
💡 Booking: IRCTC website & app | Reservation opens ~30 days in advance
Indian Railways is using Artificial Intelligence to:
Optimize routes
Monitor track and train health
Predict delays and prevent accidents
Enhance passenger experience through real-time feedback systems
This aligns with India’s Smart Mobility Mission 2047 and makes Vande Bharat a flagship of India’s tech-powered infrastructure revolution.
From Instagram reels to YouTube vlogs, Bihar’s youth are already trending #VandeBharat on social media. The excitement is real:
