Indian Railways’ first air-conditioned train is ready for its maiden run in north India. The train is set to hit tracks next year in February. The train will have state-of-the art facilities for passengers travelling short distances from Delhi.

The MEMU (mainline electric multiple unit) train, having eight stainless-steel coaches, will cater to Uttar Pradesh cities within 200-300 km from Delhi, sources said.

The upgraded MEMU air-conditioned train can run at a speed of 130 kmph instead of 100 kmph in the previous version. It has been manufactured at a cost of Rs 26 crore and has a capacity to carry 2,618 passengers as against 2,402 passengers in the present one.
