It is anticipated that the Saharsa-Mumbai Amrit Bharat train would run once a week for now, as only one rake of it has been given to the Samastipur Railway Division. This rake will depart from Mumbai and then return to Saharsa. Amrit Bharat Express: Features The Amrit Bharat Express features better-designed seats and luggage racks for increasing volume, LED lights, CCTV, mobile charging holders, a public information system, and is a vestibule train.

The train has locomotives on both ends that will cut the time of reversal. The Amrit Bharat Express will have 22 coaches, both sleeper and general. Based on push-pull technology, this train runs at a faster speed than normal express trains.

Its design is similar to Vande Bharat, although it does not have air-conditioned coaches. The government has planned to expand the Amrit Bharat Express services across India, as the Integral Coach Factory in Chennai is already in the process of manufacturing 200 trains. While 50 are under construction, 150 are planned.
