New Delhi: Indian Railways has witnessed a major transformation under the Modi government. From platform redevelopment to the introduction of new trains, the railway infrastructure has seen a drastic overhaul since 2014. It is important to note that India’s railway network offers some of the world’s most remarkable train journeys.

The Dibrugarh–Kanyakumari Vivek Express holds the title for the longest train route in India. The train connects Dibrugarh in Assam to Kanyakumari in Tamil Nadu and travels a massive 4,189 kilometers. The journey spans approximately 75 hours and 30 minutes, passing through nine states and making 57 scheduled stops.

To recall, the Indian Railways had introduced the ‘Super Vasuki’ in August 2022. The Super Vasuki is the country’s longest freight train. Measuring about 3.5 kilometers, the Super Vasuki comprises six engines and 295 wagons. This massive train can haul approximately 25,962 tons of freight, significantly enhancing the efficiency of bulk goods transportation across the country. ​​
