Country's First Rapid Train Runs On Track; Set To Begin Operating From March

Several videos of the country's first regional rapid rail running at a speed of 150 kmph for the first time are surfacing online. It was trialled for the first time at such a high speed in 9 km between Ghaziabad to Duhai station. Earlier, this train was running at 25 kilometres per hour. However, NCRTC says that the date of its final trial run will be announced soon. In the first phase, the rapid train between Sahibabad and Duhai Depot (17 km in length) will be operated in March 2023. According to the Delhi School of Economics, the rapid train will reduce the pressure of 1 lakh vehicles on the Delhi-Meerut route daily.
