Making of Vande Bharat: Viral video reveals how India’s modern trains are built

The Vande Bharat Express has become a symbol of India’s rapidly modernising railway network. Known for its sleek design, enhanced comfort, and advanced technology, the semi-high-speed train has captured the imagination of travellers across the country. For many passengers, travelling on Vande Bharat is a dream experience. Yet, while the train is widely admired, few people actually know where and how these modern coaches are built.

A recently viral video on social media has now offered a rare behind-the-scenes look at the process, giving viewers an inside glimpse of the massive facility where these trains take shape.

Instagram Video Offers A Rare Factory Tour

The video, shared on Instagram by user @karannzzz, takes viewers inside a railway manufacturing unit. The creator begins by introducing the location and inviting viewers to witness the place where modern trains are produced.

“You may have travelled on trains like Vande Bharat, but today I’ll show you where they are made. Come, take a look,” he says in the video before moving through the facility.

As the clip progresses, different stages of train coach manufacturing are revealed, offering a fascinating perspective on how these sophisticated rail coaches are assembled.

Workers Seen Assembling Train Coaches

One of the scenes shows a railway coach standing on tracks inside a spacious workshop. A worker is seen seated beneath the coach, carefully working on its mechanical fittings and technical components.

The moment highlights the precision and detailed engineering that goes into preparing each coach before it becomes ready for passenger service.

A Look Inside An Unfinished Coach

The video also captures the interior of another coach that is still under construction. Instead of completed seats and interiors, the coach appears as a long metallic structure.

Metal beams, flooring frameworks and structural components are clearly visible, indicating the early stages of the manufacturing process. A worker can be seen standing at a distance as the camera moves forward, providing a closer view of the unfinished interior.

Glimpse Of The Modern Train Inside The Facility

In another segment, the rear portion of a coach is seen resting on tracks inside the factory. Towards the end of the video, the camera captures the front section of a modern train positioned near a large blue industrial structure.

Several workers are present around the train, including one person holding a pipe while closely inspecting different sections of the vehicle.

Chennai’s Integral Coach Factory

According to the caption accompanying the video, the location shown is the Integral Coach Factory (ICF) in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, one of India’s key railway manufacturing hubs. The caption reads, “Indian trains are made here. Got a special chance to see the ICF in Chennai where trains like Vande Bharat Express are made. Have you ever seen a place where trains, cars, bikes or airplanes are made?”

A Rare Behind-The-Scenes Look

The video has sparked curiosity online by offering viewers a rare look at the complex process behind building one of India’s most advanced trains. 

As the Vande Bharat Express continues to redefine rail travel in the country, the glimpse inside its manufacturing facility has given people a deeper appreciation of the engineering and effort involved in bringing these modern trains to life.
