A ₹360‑crore project in Jodhpur has completed its first phase, enabling three Vande Bharat trains to be serviced at the same time.
The newly completed first phase of a ₹360‑crore infrastructure project in Jodhpur now allows three Vande Bharat Express trains to undergo maintenance concurrently. The upgrade is expected to reduce turnaround time for the premium trains, enhancing their operational efficiency on the network.
Officials said the facility includes modern diagnostic and repair bays designed to meet the technical specifications of the Vande Bharat rolling stock. By handling multiple units together, the depot aims to minimise service disruptions and improve punctuality for passengers.
The project forms part of a broader effort to strengthen high‑speed rail infrastructure across the country, with further phases planned to expand capacity and incorporate advanced maintenance technologies.
