@@NonstopEurotrip now mumbai to ahmedabad is also fenced and within a month, that route will be also be upgraded to 160 kmph speed. by end of this year, whole delhi-mumbai and delhi-kolkata route will be upgraded to 160 kmph. these two routes contribute to more than 30% of indian railways passenger traffic.

@@fauzirahman3285 most of the conventional lines will not be elevated whereas most of the high speed lines will be elevated. The railway's main target is to upgrade golden quadrilateral and diagonal lines to 200 KMPH. Golden quadrilateral and diagonal are around 10,000 km and they contribute almost half of IR passenger traffic.
Yeah in that case it might be a good idea for Indian railways to fence in more lines and provide more grade separations to allow higher top speeds. 160 is already really good for Indias standards but just imagine if this was pushed even further to allow 200km/h operations on these lines.
Haven't you noticed that Indian trains comes in different classes and categories, small journy to long, shorter one mostly have seater coach and long one (1-3days) have bed means sleeper class, within they comes in different classes like 1st Ac, 2nd Ac, 3rd AC , Non AC sleeper and general class (who can't afford other tickets) and all are sleeper coaches. And check out any of the luxurious trains that India have, cause some of them are included in world's most expensive and luxurious trains like Maharaja Express, Deccan Odyssey, Rajasthan on wheels, Palace on wheels, Orient express, Fairy Queen etc.... these are the best of the best Indian trains.
Those trains are categorized as luxurious. Even rich people can't afford it. Those are only made for 'Royal Class'. Which is why Indian government is providing these semi-luxury trains like the 'train 18, Gatimaan, Shatabdi, Double-decker, Rajdhani etc, that even middle classes can afford.
He definitely noticed and talked about more than one times about this in his videos. Btw this is true in nearly every country so as a master of doing hundreds of travel videos I don't think that he needs any education in this regard.
Maximum permissible speed for old ICF coaches in Indian Railways is 110 KMPH and LHB coaches is 130 KMPH. However there are only few sections which are allowed for 130 else most ordinary passenger trains in India run at an average of 110 KMPH.
Has anyone wondered how will this place look 500 years later? Its so fascinating, also people will have records of this place on internet. What a recorded civilization we have become. Great Video btw, always a pleasure for us when they review our trains and progress.
500 years is too long a timescale to think about, especially with the exponential pace of technological progress. Humans are very bad at intuiting exponential trends. 500 years later entire humanity might already be in a post-scarcity society and the current infrastructure would have been replaced many times over. Trains would be distant history, as would these seemingly impressive monuments. *Consider this, the Akshardham Temple today and even the first Lunar colonies humans will build in the next three decades, will both be older 500 years from now, than the Taj Mahal is today (some 350 years old).* I wouldn't be surprised if by then, humanity is already building its first Dyson Swarm while also terraforming Mars. Compared to those endeavors, these monuments will be nothing.
500 years SMH. Climate change will devastate India in 50 years - temperatures soaring as high as the Sahara Desert. India already has 32% of its land under degradation and 25% undergoing desertification. Large parts of Mumbai, Surat and Kolkata could go under water or be ravaged by recurrent floods by 2050. Sub-tropical and densely populated regions like South Asia will suffer the most. Humanity - the part that survives will be forced to migrate to the temperate regions.
Tracks and electric infrastructure are being upgraded as we speak for faster trains , new vande Bharat sleeper couches are rolling out. India is investing more money on rail infrastructure after decades of stagnation.

Awesome coverage as usual! Notes: - The announcement at 11:47 is regarding "Coolie service" other piece of India's colonial history under the British. Coolies are people you see with bright red shirts that help and assist travelers with lots of luggage for a fee. - The Loco WAP-5 is actually Swiss technology transferred by ABB and is a very close cousin of the SBB Re 460. WAP-5 has a maximum speed 200 km/h tested with Talgo coaches. - The coaches are LHB with Fiat Bogies a German technology transfer sharing most DNA with DB coached from 1970's and some even with latest Siemens Viaggio coaches used by Railjet. Critics: There is just way too much room to improve... SERVICE : Actually on par or sometimes even better than what DB offers here in Germany HYGIENE : I have actually seen worst on Regio services during summers (the whole 9€ fiesta) MAINTENANCE: India can do way better but it seems Europe once on the top has really given up with shabby windows and horrible graffiti even on ICE and TGV sets. TURNAROUND TIMES: Something to genuinely learn from the Europeans. Trains in India notoriously sit on the platforms for hours on end blocking traffic. SAFETY: So much to be desired. CONNECTIVITY: Europe is an example for the world. The S-bahn, the trams lines are above the Hbf, bus stop next to it, U-bahn under it and more example Berlin HBF. SPEED: Much to learn for India with one of the worst AVG speeds of all. QUALITY: Technology wise yes, Europe is one of the best out there My point: I agree with you when you "It can easily brought up to European standards" as it is not that high of a bar at all. What I would desire for Indians understand they mostly responsible for the situation of Indian trains and also that the long term goal should be to reach the Koreans, Chinese or the Japanese systems. I requires great political and social intent by fellow Indians to improve, develop and maintain the standards of Indian Railways - The life line of 1.4 billion people
Ah this bought back memories from my trip to India back in 08. Sadly didn't take any trains then. But visited Agra and the Taj Mahal. We took a car from Delhi. Sad to see the pollution is an issue still in there.
Try vande Bharat @160 KMPH all vande Bharat running towards Agra does at 160kmph and other thing can do Darjeeling toy train Kalka Shimla toy train or Ooty metupalayam toy train

Maximum indian premium trains operate on 130 across all sections...and agra delhi section as per railways is fenced to avoid run over and railway is working on fencing mumbai Ahmedabad section also
If you'd like to try another one of India's newest trains you can try the rrts service from Sahibabad and Modinagar North. I believe it also operates at a top speed of 160 km/h. Its more like a metro tho insead of a regular train. I've also travelled along the Konkan region which was really beautiful. There are a few vistadome coaches on that route you can try
I would love to visit India in the near future - not sure about the pollution though; it is the only country on youtube that I have seen where you can almost feel the pollution via the camera.
It's #winter pollution in Indus Ganga plains. In winters Himalayas trap Pollution just like Rains during rainy season. Reasons - mainly burning stubble, then construction, Traffic induced pollution , then industry.
6:38 this route is capable of 180kmph but is limited to 160 because of security reasons and traffic on this route. Even a diesel locomotive, an EMD WDP4 making 4000hp has achieved 180kmph in this section with Spanish talgo train rakes but it was discontinued and not put to commercial run. But yes, commercially, 160kmph is max as of now in Indian railways and i think its still slow and you are right because of speed restrictions, freight traffic, and passenger traffic very few indian trains reach 130kmph. No indian train is having an average speed of more than 100kmph

Agra Cantt is so neat and clean!! The last time I visit Cantt it was really dirty. Overflowing drains, garbage everywhere, animal carcasses lying on the track. Never imagined Agra Cantt would ever change. They can improve more but the cleanliness has improved quite a LOT.
@@NonstopEurotrip Darjeeling is actually in West Bengal. It is considered as Eastern part of India although it can be counted as North-East India. But I was talking about North-Eastern states known as Seven Sister's and One brother. These are Assam, Meghalaya, Manipur, Mizoram, Tripura, Nagaland, Arunachal Pradesh and Sikkim. Although some of these states don't have railway connection, but it worth it. I would suggest you to try Guwahati to Haflong Vistadome express during Monsoon. It's one of the most scenic train route of India.
Well, to be fair, many Indian trains equipped with LHB coaches and running on trunk routes (Mumbai - Delhi, Delhi - Howrah, Ahmedabad - Delhi, Chennai - Howrah, Bengaluru - Chennai, etc.) run at 130 km/h which is the maximum track speed, no matter if they are fully AC or not. And, LHB coaches have now almost become the norm on IR. The Delhi - Agra line is cleared for 160 km/h operations because it has higher capacity OHE wires (currents more than 800 A can be drawn by the locomotives) and the route is fully fenced against cattle. The Mumbai - Delhi route via Ratlam, Kota is almost completely fenced now, too with better OHE and signaling system. By next year, many long stretches on that route will be cleared for 160 km/h operations. Maybe you might want to check that out later. EDIT - One more thing, the WAP5 locomotives are capable of running at 200 km/h with a load of 16 coaches. They are essentially an underpowered version of the Swiss Re 460 locomotives.
you sounded so jolly boarding as you pan the camera on that icky floor (what makes your videos so endearing lol) glad you enjoyed that hot meal at least : )
160 kmph is the speed achieved in a nearly 170-75 km section between Billochpura near Agra n Tughlaqabad on the entry point of New Delhi. On other trunk routes like Delhi to Bengaluru Chennai Hyderabad Kolkata Mumbai Pune Ahmadabad Puri Guwahati etc the maximum permissible speed or MPS is 130 kmph. Even Gatimaan lowers to 130 kmph in the Agra Jhansi Agra 203 km section
The tracks are still not updated for vande bharat to run at 160 or 180 which is the design speed. New Sleeper couches (cant wait btw it looks the best in renders) of Vande bharat will be designed to achieve 160 operational and 200kmph designed speed. I hope we do this faster
Please try long distance Indian Trains like 12431/12432 Trivandrum Rajdhani express which is India’s longest Rajdhani Train and also 12283/12284 Ernakulam Duronto Express which is India’s longest Duronto Express each has travel time of minimum of 42 hours
Actually, Vande Bharat Trainsets are now also operating at 160 kph on the routes of Delhi - Bhopal and Delhi - Khajurao. With Mumbai Delhi and Delhi Howrah route under 160 kph upgradation scheduled to be completed by next year, they also plan to replace Rajdhanis on these routes with Sleeper variant of Vande Bharat and operate at 160 kph max speeds.
Indian trains are slowly modernized this year maybe we can see vande bharat sleeper version too. Also these AC chair trains will be replaced with vande bharat coaches too.
You should try train in kashmir, it is a short distance train but on tough terrain. Also the chenab bridge which is the worlds highest railway bridge will open soon, so maybe come next year to try that route as well
I do also feel that, for that price IR can provide better first class services and cleaner toilets; however, it seems like most of these chair car trains will be replaced by EMUs with the entry of Vande Bharats.
Be interesting to know how old the rolling stock is on the trains we travel in. That one looks mostly quite modern inside, but the vestibules and toilets look very 1970s Eastern European
You could've complained about the dirty toilet and missing TP roll on a tweet mentioning RailMadad or railminindia and help would've been on its way. The contractor who is to clean the train would've been pulled up too. They would've apologised for the tardiness and tried to make sure such things don't repeat.
@@NonstopEurotrip Baramulla to Sangaldan... This railway line in isolated from rest of the Indian Railways network with construction going to connect it with the main network... The remaining phase where the construction is still going on has "THE HIGHEST RAILWAY BRIDGE IN THE WORLD", THE CHENAB RAILWAY BRIDGE...
I recommend you to travel in Vande Bharat 2.0. The one which you travelled is the original Vande Bharat called Vande Bharat 1.0 but there is a significant improvement in 2.0 versions of Vande Bharat
Bro premium chair car trains cover the distance from and to vise versa on the same so for singal day trip indian railways have chain car servise and premium trains are Gatima express, shatabdi express and Vanda Bharat which cover up and sown journey in same day. Hope that gives you the clarity also Indian railways is working in increasing the speed of trains to 200 KM per hour shortening the time duration between the origin station and destination station and improvement also includes service onboard entire train management. You can agree everything takes time and we are moving forward and things are getting better in India. It is beautiful country you must visit South India very beautiful places are there you will like it. I am 100% sure about this.
Well your review certainlyseems more positive than what I'd have to say. Its good that India is improving its infrastructure, but the trains really need mass modernisation. Though I doubt this is viable at this stage given Indias issues with poverty. And even though the situation is getting better, it'll take quite a while to reach comparable standards as other places. But newer urban rail systems like the Metro lines and the Dehli RRTS show that India can have modern and inviting trains.
I think there is only one train in India with dining car....Deccan queen express between Mumbai and Pune....Other trains have pantry cars only for making and storing food and they will deliver it to ur seat....
Let me Give You Great Idea of Two Routes You can Try👍👍 If You want to travel in Two Great trains in India & Watching Majestic View of Indian Mountains❤❤ First Route- Premium First class Sleeper in Train Called TEJAS Rajdhani From Delhi To NJP From NJP You can try STEAM TOY Train & take good experience of this old heritage Train.🙂🙂 Second Route Premium Executive Chair Car in Train Called Shatabdi From Delhi To Kalka From Kalka You can Try heritage SHIMLA TOY TRAIN From Kalka To SHIMLA🙂

You took this trip two months ago, but your information is wrong. Gatimaan is not our fastest train as it averages 91 kmph or about 56.875 mph, the fastest is the Vande Bharat, our semi high speed train running between New Delhi and Varanasi which covers 760 km in exactly 8 hours @ 95 kmph or 59.375 mph. Second, Agra Taj Mahal is indeed a very popular tourist destination but as a religio-tourist destination mostly for domestic n foreign Hindu tourists, Tirupati temple attracts at least 70-75,000 tourists every month, registering at least 8.4 million visitors per year and is far more popular than Agra Taj.

EDIT - One more thing, the WAP5 locomotives are capable of running at 200 km/h with a load of 16 coaches. They are essentially an underpowered version of the Swiss Re 460 locomotives.
you sounded so jolly boarding as you pan the camera on that icky floor (what makes your videos so endearing lol) glad you enjoyed that hot meal at least : )
I try my best 😉
160 kmph is the speed achieved in a nearly 170-75 km section between Billochpura near Agra n Tughlaqabad on the entry point of New Delhi. On other trunk routes like Delhi to Bengaluru Chennai Hyderabad Kolkata Mumbai Pune Ahmadabad Puri Guwahati etc the maximum permissible speed or MPS is 130 kmph. Even Gatimaan lowers to 130 kmph in the Agra Jhansi Agra 203 km section
The tracks are still not updated for vande bharat to run at 160 or 180 which is the design speed. New Sleeper couches (cant wait btw it looks the best in renders) of Vande bharat will be designed to achieve 160 operational and 200kmph designed speed. I hope we do this faster
Fantastic good Video👍Thumbs Up 👍Best Greetings😀
Thank you! Cheers!
New Indian RRTS (Rapid Rail Transportation System) in New Delhi.
Please try long distance Indian Trains like 12431/12432 Trivandrum Rajdhani express which is India’s longest Rajdhani Train and also 12283/12284 Ernakulam Duronto Express which is India’s longest Duronto Express each has travel time of minimum of 42 hours
Thanks!
Actually, Vande Bharat Trainsets are now also operating at 160 kph on the routes of Delhi - Bhopal and Delhi - Khajurao. With Mumbai Delhi and Delhi Howrah route under 160 kph upgradation scheduled to be completed by next year, they also plan to replace Rajdhanis on these routes with Sleeper variant of Vande Bharat and operate at 160 kph max speeds.
@11:50 I think she said 'the coolie' (porter) charges.
Thanks! I've never heard that term before 🙌🏻
@@NonstopEurotrip welcome :)
Great book to recommend: Railways & the Raj-How the Age of Steam Transformed India by Christian Wolmar (2017)
Tejas express New Delhi to Lucknow ❤. And If you like to travel different places then once visit Rishikesh, Uttarakhand.
Sad that trains cannot keep to schedule. India still has a long way to go.
Great trip. Definitely more than flagship train. Even flagship conventional train in my country still has intermediate stop.
Even Whoosh 😂
@@NonstopEurotrip ahh that's the point 😂😂😂
We are grounded people . We love to sit down on the floor. It's not powerty , It's our culture . So don't feel sad or bad.
Strange comment
You should check out Rapid Rail/Namo Bharat trains
Another fantastic video please keep them coming
Thanks, I try my best 😎
FYI.. Delhi - Bhopal Vande bhaarat express which runs on the same route also reaches upto 160 kmph.
You could try the Vistadome coach Journey from New Jalpaiguri (NJP) to Alipur Duar Junction ( APDJ) in the Tourist Special Train.
It's on my to-do list bro 🙏🏻
Now 130 is very very common except if you are on old ICF which is 110 in that also execption like garibrath which icf and do 130kmph
India stations are distinctively Bright & Colourful.
❤ did this trip 1975 wow the difference standing all the way
This is the second fastest Indian train, Vande Bharat regularly touches 170 KM/ HR in Kota New Delhi sector
Please try Deccan Queen as well. Mumbai to Pune.
Here you are wrong buddy , WAP5 operational speed is 160 kmph . Its top speed is 225 kmph😅
Maximum speed Operational : 160 km/h (99 mph)
Trials: 184 km/h (114 mph)
WAP5A: 200 km/h (124 mph)[1]
Power output 6,000 hp (4,474 kW)
Tractive effort Starting : 258 kN (58,000 lbf)
That's a scary thought 😆
Indian trains are slowly modernized this year maybe we can see vande bharat sleeper version too. Also these AC chair trains will be replaced with vande bharat coaches too.
Good to hear. The carriages shown in the video seemed really run down and frankly quite dirty.
Sounds like "lists of coolie charges", a hangover of the Raj I suppose
Muchas gracias x sus vídeos sobre India gracias saludos desde LimaPeru
De nada amigo 🙌🏻
Need Huge investments in Indian Railways.
Hopefully, we'll get there
You should try train in kashmir, it is a short distance train but on tough terrain. Also the chenab bridge which is the worlds highest railway bridge will open soon, so maybe come next year to try that route as well
Great video !!
Thanks!
it would really be an experience if you could show trains of south east asia and china...................

Welcome to India, love and respect from Infia,
Amen 🙌🏻
There are so many different new train launched in India why don't u try them it's really amazing . U will surely enjoy there .
I definitely will when I'm back 😄
05:45 "Hey there!"
👋🏻🤣
I do also feel that, for that price IR can provide better first class services and cleaner toilets; however, it seems like most of these chair car trains will be replaced by EMUs with the entry of Vande Bharats.
That depends on the speed and comfort they can ultimately provide as to whether people make the switch!
Dinner looked very good. Do you get breakfast on the morning train?
You do Mark! Check out Superalbs video on the outbound service 🙌🏻
You need to check RRTS in India, hope that breaks western sterotypes!
When it's finished, I definitely will!
Be interesting to know how old the rolling stock is on the trains we travel in. That one looks mostly quite modern inside, but the vestibules and toilets look very 1970s Eastern European
This one is 2000s
11:52 Details of coolie (porter) charges have been displayed...
There is sooooo 😮 Many people everywhere! 🥹
That's India 🙃
if you are still in india try rrts and new orangee vande bharat
I will next time 😄
You could've complained about the dirty toilet and missing TP roll on a tweet mentioning RailMadad or railminindia and help would've been on its way. The contractor who is to clean the train would've been pulled up too. They would've apologised for the tardiness and tried to make sure such things don't repeat.
I'll know this next time 😄
Why doesn't The Gatimann EXpress run on Fridays? Fridays nd Sundays are Amtrka's biggest days.
No idea 😆
Would love for you to do one video on railways in Kashmir, they are probably one of the most underrated and the best scenic trips ever
Which route would you recommend?
@@NonstopEurotrip
Baramulla to Sangaldan... This railway line in isolated from rest of the Indian Railways network with construction going to connect it with the main network... The remaining phase where the construction is still going on has "THE HIGHEST RAILWAY BRIDGE IN THE WORLD", THE CHENAB RAILWAY BRIDGE...
I recommend you to travel in Vande Bharat 2.0. The one which you travelled is the original Vande Bharat called Vande Bharat 1.0 but there is a significant improvement in 2.0 versions of Vande Bharat
I have already 👀
@@NonstopEurotrip I didn’t see that video in the playlist😭.
Try SAFFRON VANDE BHARAT TRAIN ❤
It's just the same. The only difference is the colour.
Bro premium chair car trains cover the distance from and to vise versa on the same so for singal day trip indian railways have chain car servise and premium trains are Gatima express, shatabdi express and Vanda Bharat which cover up and sown journey in same day.
Hope that gives you the clarity also Indian railways is working in increasing the speed of trains to 200 KM per hour shortening the time duration between the origin station and destination station and improvement also includes service onboard entire train management.
You can agree everything takes time and we are moving forward and things are getting better in India.
It is beautiful country you must visit South India very beautiful places are there you will like it. I am 100% sure about this.
I can wait to come back any try out some more Amazing train in India 💕
This seems like a 2022 trip,
The date of filming is always in the description
@@NonstopEurotrip 👍🏿
You can feel 160 kmph in this train. It literally shakes at that speed. Vande Bharat has good jerk absorbers,it runs smoothly at that speed.
Also try out the luxury maharaja or any other such Indian train. Amazing video, thanks❤
Well your review certainlyseems more positive than what I'd have to say. Its good that India is improving its infrastructure, but the trains really need mass modernisation. Though I doubt this is viable at this stage given Indias issues with poverty. And even though the situation is getting better, it'll take quite a while to reach comparable standards as other places. But newer urban rail systems like the Metro lines and the Dehli RRTS show that India can have modern and inviting trains.
I can't wait to come back and try out some more trains in India soon 👀
Bom dia boa viagem ai lindo trem 0:57
Looks way better than the Pakistani coaches... I wonder why Indian trains don't have restuarant cars?
😃to accomodate extra passengers and revenue.. instead of wasting in a dining car as ticket is already heavily subsidized
I think there is only one train in India with dining car....Deccan queen express between Mumbai and Pune....Other trains have pantry cars only for making and storing food and they will deliver it to ur seat....
Better than pakistan?? R u serious.
Don't compare us to them.
Because Indian trains are pretty big like 24 coaches, we don't have 1 more for restaurant😊😊
Let me Give You Great Idea of Two Routes You can Try👍👍
If You want to travel in Two Great trains in India & Watching Majestic View of Indian Mountains❤❤
First Route-
Premium First class Sleeper in Train Called TEJAS Rajdhani From Delhi To NJP
From NJP You can try STEAM TOY Train & take good experience of this old heritage Train.🙂🙂
Second Route
Premium Executive Chair Car in Train Called Shatabdi From Delhi To Kalka
From Kalka You can Try heritage SHIMLA TOY TRAIN From Kalka To SHIMLA🙂
Thanks for the suggestions!!! 🙂
@@NonstopEurotrip Hope So You will Admire this Suggestion
& Try these Trains
@@multiarena2260 definitely. I have done the DHR already tho: th-cam.com/video/Bro2lFVdI2k/w-d-xo.htmlsi=eto4zAbp_2q28bTB
Come to Bangladesh
I'm Indian & my town station is more modern and clean than New Delhi LoL shit 🤣🤣🤣
😆
The day wil come soon when European will strive to achieve Indian standards.
We strive for Chinese standards already.
Next : travel & explore Nepal 🇳🇵 ....
I have already, but no trains 😆
Make video on rrts delhi
Reupload ?
No.
Chair as opposed to sleeper
Some chair classes don't have chair in the name though?
Bro review by Bangladesh 🚆 train
Please check out Saffron vande bharat ❤
I will next time 😃
Can you try kalka shimla heritage railway please
I plan to!
Check out the Mathern Toy Train. Most videos are in Hindi so I don't understand what the blogger is saying.
I plan to :)
i hope u make video about train in vietnam
I already have 😄
5:09 there might be some without and you just have to sit on the floor
Edit:the moment the sentence finnished i realized and froze
👀
Hey please travel in new train service called RRTS ( not a metro ) it's amazing
When it's finished, I will!
Try Indian luxury trains
Given the huge population in India surely people can be employed to keep trains cleaned and well s tocked, and to remove the litter which is everywhere?
They kind of do...
The rail link from North Korea to Russia....
Two places I probably won't be going anytime soon 🤣
She is saying FULL DETAIL5 are available at the station.. just a bit back to front in English.
Bro travel in a cng and solarpanel power train in india
GOOD
At 4 41 you by mistake have written indian railways route length is 60000 km which is blatantly wrong it is near about 69000 km please edit that mistake.
If you cannot edit the video, write a comment with correction written and pin it.

You took this trip two months ago, but your information is wrong. Gatimaan is not our fastest train as it averages 91 kmph or about 56.875 mph, the fastest is the Vande Bharat, our semi high speed train running between New Delhi and Varanasi which covers 760 km in exactly 8 hours @ 95 kmph or 59.375 mph. Second, Agra Taj Mahal is indeed a very popular tourist destination but as a religio-tourist destination mostly for domestic n foreign Hindu tourists, Tirupati temple attracts at least 70-75,000 tourists every month, registering at least 8.4 million visitors per year and is far more popular than Agra Taj.
