what is up YouTube I'm here at the train
station in Varanasi and I'm really
excited about what we're doing today
we're gonna be going from Varanasi to
Delhi on the highest speed train in
India it's a brand new train called the
Banda Bharat Express train number two to
435 this train only started running last
month so it's very new it's very modern
and it's a hundred percent made in India
so for a country like India where so
much of this country runs on trains I
mean it is the world's largest train
system if you can believe it
so trains are really like the arteries
that bring Indians all over this great
country so to have a high-speed train
like the one behind me which is capable
of reaching high speeds about 180
kilometers per hour it's a big
achievement I'm excited to see what it's
like
[Music]
okay first impressions very clean very
modern as you would expect good amount
of legroom we got a cup holder tray okay
so every seat has a charger underneath
let's see if it works
it's a bit hard to find because it's way
under your seat but yeah it's charging
[Music]
it's just about 3 p.m. so we'll see if
we leave on time I'm just checking out
this sign behind me it's got a lot of
interesting information so this is cool
it tells you what the next station will
be very useful if you have to get off at
one of the stations before the final
station and the destination is of course
New Delhi we should get there at 11 p.m.
we'll see if it's on time or not
hopefully that doesn't change and we get
there at 11 oh and it tells you the
distance to
so that's an average of just under 100
km/h which one you consider the stops we
have to make is it's pretty good so we
are already delayed by well not one
minute by 0.6 minutes that's an oddly
specific time but I guess they have the
mathematics figured out on this you
buddy
why darkness Egyptian station C maybe T
station and I wanna go see Junction is
in here one day just like that we're
moving it's so smooth I didn't even feel
that we had left but we're moving very
calm pace as we exit the station
[Music]
I have two people sitting next to me in
my seat so I'm just kind of walking
around the train to have a bit more
space to film but so far there are
plenty of empty seats maybe it will get
busier at the next few stops okay so
after only about twenty or thirty
minutes they just brought us a lunch I'm
surprised I knew that we were getting
dinner I wasn't even sure if we would
get a lunch but this it looks pretty
cool I think this is like a samosa or
some Indian treat
and we have a mix for masala chai I'm
not sure exactly how we get the hot
water but I'm sure it's coming
did they give the ketchup just because
I'm a foreigner or do Indians actually
eat samosa with ketchup I don't know but
that's what I'm doing
this stuff is great
[Music]
now it says we are doing 100 km/h it
seems like the resting speed is between
100 and 110 so there's something on the
train called train media there are some
very old classic films in Hindi and in
English and there appears to be one
modern YouTube video called the apples
and bananas song
[Music]
you know what Indian Railways I think
you should get some some new youtubers
on your app maybe the new travel India
series something to think about
[Music]
so it is about 7:45 I guess we're about
halfway halfway to the journey no
actually more than halfway
anyway dinner is here I got the non-veg
tally the only choices are veg and
non-veg so I assume I will probably have
a bit of chicken let's check this out
okay I'm not gonna film the eating of
this meal because I kind of need both my
hands for this but as you can see it
looks like sort of typical what you
would expect to get in an airline or
something like that but it is typical
Indian food that thali yeah it's dinner
[Music]
well guys we just pulled into the train
station in New Delhi the final
destination it's just after 11:00 it's
about I would say we pulled in about 10
minutes late today pretty much right on
time actually the Train did fill up a
lot more I didn't film that part so much
because just every seat was full the
first couple hours from Varanasi there
was plenty of space and I could switch
seats and stuff but yeah I was packed by
the end there were only three other
foreigners on the train from what I saw
so I don't think many foreigners know
about this train yet at least at the
time of making this video well yeah I
would highly recommend it once again
I'll put the name and all that
information in the description and I
hope you guys like this video let me
know what you think of my train videos
let me know how I can make them better
and yeah I got more more videos coming
from India very soon as always guys I'm
Dan from the new travel I'll see you
next time
