Not Rajdhani or Vande Bharat: These 2 Trains Get Top Priority on Indian Railways
- •Indian Railways prioritizes two types of trains over premium ones like Rajdhani, Shatabdi, and Vande Bharat due to their critical functions.
- •The Accident Relief Medical Equipment (ARME) train is highest priority, acting as a mobile hospital for rapid response to rail accidents, saving lives.
- •ARME trains are always on standby, depart within minutes, run at 100-130 km/h, and receive a green corridor, with all other trains stopping for them.
- •Presidential and VVIP Special trains, used by top constitutional figures, are the second highest priority, ensuring security and smooth movement.
- •These special trains feature luxury amenities, advanced security, and also get clear routes, with other trains controlled for their passage.
Why It Matters: ARME and VVIP Special trains hold top priority on Indian Railways for life-saving and security reasons.
