The railways will introduce a Vande Bharat Sleeper Train in the Delhi - Srinagar route in a few months. If all goes well, the train will be launched in January 2025. An 800 km service that will be covered in 13 hours departs Delhi at 7 pm and reaches Srinagar at 8 am the next day. A few of its important stops are the Ambala Cantonment Junction, Ludhiana Junction, Kathua, Jammu Tawi, Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Katra, Sangaldan and Banihal.
