Finally, after a long gap, the Central Railway is getting an Air-Conditioned local train for Mumbai. This will be a completely 12-car walkthrough train. The freshly manufactured AC train with underslung electricals was despatched from the manufacturing unit of Integral Coach Factory on Wednesday and is on its way to Mumbai.
The train, with electricals from Medha Servodrives due to underslung equipment (248913-14), is a 12-car walkthrough train. The underslung propulsion technology, based on the Train 18 Vande Bharat model, doesn't take up much space for its electrical and other equipment as it is underslung, making more space available for passenger seating.
