The Vande Bharat Express has crossed the iconic Chenab Bridge in Jammu and Kashmir at nearly 100 kmph for the first time.
The milestone highlights the operational capabilities of the world’s highest railway bridge and marks another step forward for rail connectivity in the region.
The Chenab Bridge is a crucial part of the Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link (USBRL), which is designed to provide an all-weather rail connection between Kashmir and the rest of India.
The successful high-speed crossing by Vande Bharat underlines the progress made in integrating modern train services with the challenging mountainous railway infrastructure of Jammu and Kashmir.
