Jodhpur-Jaisalmer Rail Journey Gets Faster: 121 km/h Trial Successful!

• North Western Railway's Jodhpur Division successfully conducted an OMS train trial at 121 km/h on the Jodhpur-Jaisalmer section.
• This trial paves the way for increasing the speed limit, previously capped at 100 km/h, after significant technical upgrades and track machine works.
• Divisional Railway Manager Anurag Tripathi confirmed excellent track quality, with no 'peak' exceeding 0.2 G recorded during the high-speed trial.
• OMS (Oscillation Monitoring System) technology is used by Indian Railways to assess track condition, measuring vibrations and jerks to identify weaknesses.
• The upgrade will significantly reduce travel time between Jodhpur and Jaisalmer, benefiting both local passengers and tourists, and enhancing rail operations.
