Vande Bharat train, running at 160 kmph, stops automatically before red signal in first 'Kavach' trial, ET Auto
The Agra railway division successfully tested an automatic braking system installed in eight-car Vande Bharat trains as part of the 'Kavach' anti-collision device. In the trial, the train automatically stopped 10 meters before a red signal at a speed of 160 kmph without the loco pilot applying the brakes. This parameter will now be standardized for all eight-car Vande Bharat trains nationwide. The 'Kavach' system, installed in all Vande Bharat trains, can automatically apply brakes if the loco pilot fails to do so.
