Indian Railways is all set to upgrade long-distance travel with the introduction of 10 new Vande Bharat sleeper trains in 2025. Known for their speed, safety, and modern amenities, Vande Bharat trains have already changed the face of daytime train travel. Now, the sleeper version promises to redefine overnight journeys as well.
In this blog, we’ll look at what makes these sleeper trains special, the expected routes, and how platforms like RailMitra can help you plan your trip by checking train schedule, and seat availability with ease.

With a focus on comfort and speed, the sleeper version is expected to replace several traditional express and mail trains in the coming years.
