As the second Vande Bharat train on the Jodhpur-Delhi Cantt route was inaugurated on September 25 and began regular service from September 27, it will be upgraded to a 20-coach train very soon. Earlier, the Railway Board had already sent a 20-coach Vande Bharat to Jodhpur, but it was
kept at Merta Road because there was not enough space at Jodhpur's washing line to maintain such a long train.
Arrival of New Coaches
Railway officials have now confirmed that the new coaches will soon arrive in Jodhpur from Northern Railway. At the same time, the coaches of the existing Vande Bharat train will be shifted to South India. The upgraded 20-coach train is expected to start operations between March 25 and March 31. There are also changes being made to the current train rake, which will take place on Wednesday. The existing 8-coach rake will be replaced with a new one, known as rake number 50, which has already reached Jodhpur, and the old rake will be sent to Ajmer.
Temporary Halts
Meanwhile, due to the Navratri fair, some trains will have a temporary stop at Dongargarh station to help passengers visiting the Maa Bamleshwari temple and to manage the extra rush during the festival.
Regular Trains with Halts
Train number 20843, Bilaspur-Bhagat Ki Kothi Express, and train number 20845, Bilaspur-Bikaner Express, will stop at Dongargarh at 9:56 PM and leave at 9:58 PM between March 19 and 27. Similarly, train numbers 20844 and 20846 will arrive at 5:40 AM and depart at 5:42 AM on the same dates.
