Vande Bharat Train through Bhor Ghats en route Mumbai. Normally, in ghat areas you need a banker(pushing loco) to climb the hilly tracks,but VBE cruised the ghats with relative ease which adds another feather to the cap of ICF and @RailMinIndia. PC: Pranit Gawand @AshwiniVaishnaw

First,let's accept the fact that this is a prototype and there may be teething problems initially. And let's have faith on our engineers to set them right. Remember Edison and the bulb? For the first time in India, we have developed the train set indigenously. #VandeBharatExpress.
