avoid inconveniencing passengers who had booked seats, Southern Railway arranged a replacement rake with ICF coaches. The original Vande Bharat Express, an eight-car rake with 560 seats, was replaced with a rake of three 3-Tier AC and one 2-Tier AC coaches, totalling 238 seats. Southern Railway issued 'lower class travel' certificates to passengers to compensate for the difference in fare, and passengers who wish to get a refund must file a ticket deposit receipt (TDR) form. The original VB rake is expected to be operational by Sunday.

Friday raat ko pahunchne pe 'sick' report kiya gaya tha. Passengers ko inconvenience na ho, isliye Southern Railway ne ICF coaches wala ek replacement rake arrange kiya. Original Vande Bharat Express, jo ki 8-car rake hai aur 560 seats hai, uski jagah 3 3-Tier AC aur 1 2-Tier AC coaches wala rake, jisme 238 seats hain, rakha gaya. Southern Railway ne passengers ko 'lower class travel' certificate diye hain taaki wo fare ka difference claim kar saken. Aur passengers jo refund chahte hain, unko ticket deposit receipt (TDR) form fill karna hoga. Original VB rake Sunday tak operational hone ki ummeed hai.
