Vande Bharat Train: Rail passengers traveling between Delhi and Jodhpur are all set for a faster and more comfortable journey with the introduction of two new Vande Bharat Express trains on the route.

According to railway officials, these trains will operate on different schedules, one in the morning and one in the evening, to cater to both business travelers and tourists. The services will also help reduce the load on already overcrowded trains like the Mandore Express and Rajasthan Sampark Kranti Express.
The launch of the two Vande Bharat trains also reflects the government’s vision to expand the semi-high-speed rail network
The semi-high-speed Vande Bharat Express trains are equipped with modern facilities such as reclining seats, automatic doors, bio-vacuum toilets, CCTV cameras, and improved passenger information systems. The coaches are also fitted with advanced suspension technology, ensuring a smoother ride even at high speeds.
For Rajasthan, this move is being seen as a big push to promote tourism and trade. Jodhpur, known as the “Blue City” and famous for Mehrangarh Fort, Umaid Bhawan Palace, and its desert culture, attracts a large number of domestic and international tourists every year. With faster train services, tourism inflow is expected to rise significantly.
The launch of the two Vande Bharat trains also reflects the government’s vision to expand the semi-high-speed rail network across India, connecting major cultural, economic, and political centers. This will further strengthen Rajasthan’s railway infrastructure while providing passengers with world-class travel experience at affordable fares.
The trains are expected to halt at key stations such as Jaipur, Ajmer, and Pali, ensuring connectivity for multiple cities along the corridor. With this, people from across Rajasthan will benefit from improved accessibility to the national capital Delhi.
Railway authorities are finalizing the official timetable and fare structure, and the trains are expected to begin operations in the coming months.
