It works with a frequency of 15 minutes from each station and touches its maximum 160 km / h for a few seconds between some of the 11 stations on the route. There are 30 train sets from Namo Bharat, each with 6 cars.
Gatiman Express
Gatiman Express was launched in 2016 and was the first Semi-High Speed train in the country, which used to be 160 km / h between Hazarat Nizamuddin and Agra run on the specially laid traces. Later, when the Semi-High Speed train series Vande Bharat was introduced, it also worked at the same maximum speed, but only on this route.
In June 2024, however, the Railway Minister decided to lower their speed from 160 to 130 km / h without specifying reasons. All trains are currently working in the Indian rail network with the upper speed limit of 130 km / h.
