Jamshedpur: South Eastern Railway is preparing to run Vande Bharat Express train between Tatanagar and Patna soon. This train will reach Patna in seven hours via Bhojudih and Gomo. For this, a maintenance center is also being built in Tatanagar. Railways is considering different routes for this train, so that maximum number of passengers can benefit. At present, trains going from Tata to Patna have to change the engine in Asansol, which wastes time. This problem will be solved by the new route and the people of Dhanbad will also get direct benefit.
However, the Railways has not yet officially confirmed it. But sources say that the operation of this train can start soon. This train will have eight coaches and its speed will be 130 to 160 kilometers per hour. The responsibility of maintenance of this train will be with Chakradharpur Railway Division of South Eastern Railway. For this, a maintenance center is being built in Tatanagar. While the initial repair work will be done at Patliputra Coaching Complex in Patna.
New ‘Vande Bharat’ can run via Bhojudih-Gomo
This train can be run on a new route. This train can be run via Tatanagar-Purulia-Anara-Bhojudih-Mahuda-Gomo-Koderma-Gaya-Jehanabad-Patna. Recently, Tata-Patna special train was run, which reached Patna in just eight hours via this route. By running ‘Vande Bharat’ on this route, South Eastern Railway can cover more of its stations.
This could be the time of ‘Vande Bharat’
The expected time of this train will be from Tatanagar at 6 am and it will reach Patna by 1 pm. Then it will depart from Patna between 2 pm and 3 pm and reach Tatanagar between 10 pm and 11 pm. This train will run 6 days a week.
At present the train goes to Patna via Asansol
At present the train going to Tatanagar-Bihar runs via Purulia-Jaichandi Pahad-Asansol-JCDeh-Kyul. During this time its engine has to be changed at Asansol station. Due to this a lot of time is wasted.
This is the train for Tata-Patna
Let us tell you, at present there is no train from Tata to Patna, whatever train is there goes beyond Patna. These trains include Tata-Buxar Express, Durg-Ara South Bihar Express and Bilaspur-Patna Super Express.
Railways believes that this train will be very convenient for the passengers traveling between Tata and Patna. Besides, this will also boost tourism in the area.
