Extending the premium train service, he said, would not only ease the heavy rush on the Hirakhand Express but also unlock new opportunities for development in under-served areas like Nandapur, Lamtaput, and the adjoining districts of Nabarangpur and Malkangiri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bahinipati estimated that the extended journey from Bhubaneswar to Koraput would take around nine hours, compared to the present five-hour run between Bhubaneswar and Visakhapatnam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s worth noting that the Bhubaneswar-Visakhapatnam Vande Bharat Express was flagged off in March 2024. Initially planned as a Puri-Visakhapatnam service, the Railway Board later revised its route to originate from Bhubaneswar, making it Odisha\u2019s third Vande Bharat service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The train currently operates six days a week, excluding Mondays, halting at key stations including Khurda Road, Balugaon, Berhampur, Ichapuram, Palasa, Srikakulam Road, and Vizianagaram. It departs Bhubaneswar at 5.15 am, reaching Visakhapatnam by 11 am. The return trip commences at 3.30 pm, arriving back in Bhubaneswar by 9.30 pm \u2014 covering the 445 km stretch in about six hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, beyond Koraput, both the Odisha government and public representatives have also advocated for extending the Vande Bharat service to Hyderabad, citing the thousands of Odia workers based in Andhra Pradesh\u2019s cities. Proponents argue that improved rail connectivity would spur intra-state travel and economic activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The eight-coach semi-high-speed train currently comprises one executive chair car and seven chair cars, with its primary maintenance facility located in Bhubaneswar, according to a recent communication from the Railway Board\u2019s coaching director to East Coast Railway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By S.N.Panda Bhubaneswar, May 12: A fresh demand has emerged seeking the extension of the Bhubaneswar-Visakhapatnam Vande Bharat Express
