New color of train taken from tricolor
The Railway Minister said that we have worked and made changes in the train only on the basis of the feedback received from the Vande Bharat train that landed on the ground. Along with this, work is also being done on a new safety feature anti-climbers.

Trial run of new train
The Railway Board had earlier asked ICF Chennai to design the Vande Bharat train in a new colour. Along with this, changing the color will also give a lot of benefit in the maintenance and upkeep of the train. At present, the Vande Bharat train with orange and gray color is currently being trialled. On the basis of Dubback, it has been decided to adopt this color or theme even further.
