Srinagar: The Integral Coach Factory (ICF), the largest railway passenger coach maker in the world, will soon roll out Vande Bharat Express rake for Jammu and Kashmir.
Addressing the employees after unfurling the Tricolor on the 75th Republic Day BG Mallya, General Manager was quoted by IANS as saying, “ICF has two important projects in hand. The first one is the Vande Metro project which will be a fully air-conditioned inter-city train service. ICF is planning to roll out the prototype of Vande Metro by March this year.”
The next project is the Vande Bharat Express rake for Jammu and Kashmir, with suitable modifications to suit the challenging climatic conditions that prevail therein. We hope to turn out this rake shortly,” Mallya said.
According to him, last year ICF turned the 50th Vande Bharat rakes a big achievement, despite various challenges on the supply front.
“The Amrit Bharat push-pull train was also turned out last October in collaboration with CLW (Chittaranjan Locomotive Works) which is a boon to the common man and provides with a travel experience much better than what he has today,” Mallya said
