 Railways have made significant progress in maintaining cleanliness on the Vande Bharat train. An alert will sound if there is an unpleasant stench coming from the restroom

Central Railways has implemented novel measures aimed at enhancing the quality of service and sanitation of its Vande Bharat trains.

The nation's first semi-high speed train, the Vande Bharat Train, will now have even better passenger accommodations thanks to two significant actions made by Central Railways. Under this, staff members and law enforcement personnel will now get an instant alarm in the event that the train restrooms become unclean. Railways has also made action to lessen the harm that Vande Bharat trains do when they collide with animals at the same time.

Sensor for toilet odor

Odor sensors have been installed in the executive coach restrooms of Vande Bharat rakes by Central Railways as a proactive measure to improve hygiene and swiftly address passenger issues. These sensors are intended to continually monitor the levels of odor in the restroom and are only used temporarily. The sensor instantly notifies the housekeeping crew when it detects an increase in odor strength.

With the help of this cutting-edge technology, employees are able to respond quickly to any indicated location, maintain hygienic standards, and guarantee timely action to reduce passenger discomfort. Following a fruitful trial period, these odor sensors will be progressively added to all other coaches, improving comfort and hygiene throughout the train.

This activity pertaining to animal collisions

Upon identifying a persistent issue with cattle crushing accidents that impact the pneumatic line that runs from the reservoir to the auto drain valve in the driving trailer coach (DTC) of Vande Bharat trains, Central Railway has implemented a major change. In light of the possibility of harm from foreign item entanglement during such situations, the pneumatic pipes in a DTC coach have been oriented in the other direction.

Since it is in the first line of contact, the pneumatic pipe that runs from the main reservoir cylinder to the auto drain valve becomes entangled with extraneous items during cattle slaughter situations, causing damage. As a result, DTC coaches' auto drain valves sustain damage.

On a DTC coach, the pneumatic pipe is positioned in reverse and monitored to prevent damage to the auto drain valve and connecting pipe. If successful, this change would also be made to the remaining Vande Bharat Rake DTC coaches.

With this calculated change, damage to the connecting pipe and auto drain valve will be minimized, and smooth performance will be guaranteed even under trying circumstances. This updated orientation's efficacy is being closely observed right now, and if it proves to be successful in its validation, additional DTC coaches within Vande Bharat rakes will get the same adjustment.

These programs demonstrate Central Railway's steadfast dedication to passenger comfort, safety, and operational effectiveness. They are a proactive measure to deal with the issues and keep improving the Vande Bharat coaches' travel experience for customers.
