Description: Vande Bharat Cargo Train to Undergo Trials at Up to 180 Kmph Indian Railways has begun technical trials of its first Freight EMU developed on the Vande Bharat trainset platform. The 16-coach prototype is intended to transport time-sensitive cargo much faster than conventional goods trains. The train initially completed loaded testing at 130 kilometres per hour on the Kota–Rohal Khurd section. It subsequently touched approximately 145 kilometres per hour during further speed trials. Reports indicate that the testing programme includes runs at speeds of up to 180 kilometres per hour before final certification. However, 180 kilometres per hour will be a testing speed rather than the expected speed of regular services. The train is being designed for commercial operation at up to 160 kilometres per hour, subject to track conditions, signalling systems and safety approval. Unlike conventional freight trains, the Freight EMU does not use a separate locomotive to pull unpowered wagons. Traction motors are distributed through the formation, with powered and non-powered coaches arranged alternately. Approximately half of the train’s axles receive power. Distributed traction enables faster acceleration, smoother braking and quicker recovery after speed restrictions. Regenerative braking can also return electricity to the supply network when the train slows down. The train has wide loading doors and systems designed for palletised goods. It is expected to carry e-commerce parcels, medicines, packaged products, electronics, refrigerated goods and other cargo requiring dependable, time-bound delivery.
