The list of Vande Bharat Express trains operating in India is an ever-expanding list.
Adding to the queue, Indian Railways will be operating two more semi-high-speed trains on different routes in the country.
PM Narendra Modi will flag off the new trains on Secunderabad-Tirupati and Chennai-Coimbatore routes.

The Secunderabad-Tirupati Vande Bharat Express is the second Vande Bharat train to depart from Telangana and the 12th in India.

The Vande Bharat Express trains run on various Indian lines and are outfitted with cutting-edge amenities for the convenience of passengers.
The train has conveniences, including sliding doors, wifi, reclining seats, and more. The Indian-developed Kavach safety system is another feature of the indigenous locomotive that emphasises safety.
