New Delhi: Indian Railways has undergone significant changes since Narendra Modi took office. From the modernization of railway platforms to the 100 percent electrification of tracks, the sector has seen a remarkable transformation. It is important to note that the Indian Railways, which boasts the world’s fourth-largest rail network, holds several records.
Every day, more than 13,000 trains run on tracks across India. Some trains cover long distances, while others travel shorter routes. Some run at high speeds, while others move at a slow pace. Here in this article, we will talk about a train that covers nearly 500 km without any stoppage.
Earlier, the title of India’s longest non-stop train was held by the Trivandrum-Nizamuddin Rajdhani Express. This train runs from Hazrat Nizamuddin Railway Station in the capital city of Delhi to Trivandrum, the capital of Kerala. Covering a distance of approximately 2,845 km, it takes around 42 hours to complete its journey. Earlier, this train used to travel non-stop for about 528 km from Kota in Rajasthan to Vadodara in Gujarat. However, later, a stop was introduced at Ratlam in Madhya Pradesh. Due to the addition of the Ratlam stop, its non-stop journey was reduced to 258 km.
