India to get its first hydrogen built train this year

The Railways is manufacturing Vande Metro trains which will replace those designed in 1950s and 60s, says Railways and Communication Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw. He also said that the first indigenously designed and built hydrogen train would roll out in December 2023. According to reports, the minister has stated that they are designing a world class Vande Bharat Metro which will be a great leap forward. The ministry has further stated that it will focus on and will cater to the middle and the lower middle class population belt as the focus is not on the high end users. The design process is already going on and we should be able to roll out the first hydrogen train in the country by December 2023. The Railways is working on Vande Bharat-3 design, which will have sleeper class and would also be used for long journeys.
