The newest Vande Bharat trains would cut the distance between the two cities’ travel times by roughly three and a half hours, which will especially help pilgrims from both Telugu states.
This is the first Vande Bharat Express of India that connects Tirupati, a city in Andhra Pradesh that is home to several old temples as well as the significant Hindu shrine of Tirumala Venkateswara Temple. Thus, the 13th Vande Bharat Express in India will travel between Secunderabad in Telangana and Tirupati in Andhra Pradesh.
Therefore, Hyderabad, an IT hub, and Tirupati are connected by a new semi-high-speed train. During a three-month period, Telangana has been the starting point for a second Vande Bharat train.
PM Modi launched India’s eighth Vande Bharat Express between Secunderabad and Visakhapatnam earlier in January.
One week after the Prime Minister launched the most recent Vande Bharat on the Bhopal-New Delhi route, the train was officially inaugurated on the new route. While traveling the 660 kilometers between the cities, the Secunderabad-Tirupati Vande Bharat Express makes stops at Nalgonda, Guntur, Ongole, and Nellore stations.
The commute between the two cities will be shortened by about three and a half hours thanks to the train. Furthermore, the train touches in 52 seconds or less when traveling at 100 mph.
However, for those traveling from Hyderabad to the holy destination of Tirupati, the train will provide a smooth journey. The Secunderabad to Tirupati Vande Bharat will leave at six in the morning and arrive in Tirupati at two in the afternoon. Compared to the 12 hours most present services need, the train will travel the whole journey in 8 hours and 30 minutes.
A photo-catalytic UV air purification system is incorporated in the Roof-Mounted Package Unit (RMPU) in the new Vande Bharat Express design to purify the air. This system is built and placed on both ends of the RMPU, as advised by the Central Scientific Instruments Organization (CSIO), Chandigarh, to filter and clean the air free from contaminants such as bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms arriving through fresh air and return air.
