The route will connect Lucknow to Gorakhpur via Ayodhya. Notably, the mini Vande Bharat Express will feature eight coaches instead of the usual 16. It is worth mentioning that a similar mini version of a semi-high-speed train is already operational between Chennai Central and Coimbatore Junction.
The route, schedule, and fare have yet not been finalised, but it is expected that the railway board will give approval a couple of days before the flagging-off ceremony.
Vande Bharat Express is likely to cover a distance of 302 km in less than four hours. The train will operate at maximum 110 kmph on the track.
