01:12Vande Bharat Express is the pride of the country.
01:16The train built by Bharatiya Rail has been liked by the people of the country.
01:21And now we are preparing to run Vande Bharat Express for the Kashmir Valley.
01:26The Vande Bharat Express has been built in Chennai.
01:30It has many new features.
01:34We have included all the features of the old Vande Bharat Express.
01:38We have built it in such a way that
01:42even if the temperature in the Kashmir Valley is minus 20, 25 or even minus 30 degrees,
01:48the Vande Bharat Express will run there.
01:51You all know that there is snowfall in the Kashmir Valley.
01:54So that the snowfall does not affect the operation of the train.
01:58Accordingly, safety features have been developed.
02:02We have designed the driver's cab and the front screen.
02:11The front screen has been developed in a three-fold tougher way.
02:16So even if it snows, it will not affect the screen.
02:23Another challenge is that when the temperature is minus 20 degrees,
02:27how to keep the whole coach warm.
02:29So we have arranged heaters in such a way
02:34that the whole coach will be warm.
02:36Also, the water system has been arranged in this coach.
02:43For this, we have used silicon pads and other heating equipment.
02:50So this train has been built in such a way
02:54that passengers can reach Srinagar without any problem
02:59from Jammu and other places in the Kashmir Valley.
03:04The date for the operation of this train has not yet been decided.
03:09When the railway service for the Kashmir Valley will start,
03:14we will inform people through you.
03:18The date has not yet been decided on the railway board.
03:21But the necessary preparations have been completed.
03:25The railway line has been connected.
03:29Our Chenab Bridge and Anjikhat Bridge are ready.
03:33The most challenging geographical challenge in the construction of this railway line
03:41was the construction of Tunnel T33.
03:45The construction of Tunnel T33 has been completed.
03:48The railway line has been laid in the tunnel.
03:52We are ready for all kinds of challenges.
03:54We want the railway line to reach Ghati as soon as possible.
04:01We will try to ensure a comfortable and memorable journey for the passengers.
04:15I am A.K. Chandra, Principal Chief Mechanical Engineer, Northern Railway.
04:20This train has been specifically designed
04:25for operation in extreme cold weather conditions
04:30like the conditions we have in the valley area.
04:33It is like other Vande Baar trains only
04:36with some additional features that enable it to operate in extreme cold weather.
04:42It is heating for the water tanks,
04:49the complete pipelines,
04:51the saloon area,
04:54and the windshield.
