UTTAR PRADESH (Metro Rail News): Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Shri Yogi Adityanath, visited the Agra Metro Rail Project on 8th August and digitally unveiled the first sight of the Agra Metro train in the Agra Metro Depot Premises .

The honourable chief minister also presented the digital metro train for Kanpur Metro last year.

The CM also strongly advocated for environmental protection and planted a tree inside the Agra Metro Rail Depot, which is located within the grounds of the 15th battalion PAC premises.

The Metro coaches for the Agra Metro are being produced in Savli, Gujarat, according to Managing Director UPMRC Shri Sushil Kumar, who spoke about this momentous event for the Agra Metro Rail Project.

It is a significant accomplishment for the Indian government’s “Make in India” initiative. The Agra Metro Rail Project will receive 87 coaches, or 29 rolling stock (metro trains) with three coaches each. The intended speed for these trains is 90 kmph. For the Kanpur and Agra Metro Rail Project, UPMRC completed an integrated contract for rolling stock and signalling with the aim of saving time and assuring timely delivery of rolling stock.

Characteristics of the ultra modern rolling stock to be utilised in the Agra Metro Rail Project

The train is a “intelligent means of transportation” since it is outfitted with the ultra modern ATP/ATO (Automatic Train Protection and Automatic Train Operation) form of train operation.

Inside the cars, there are fire-retardant materials with low fire loads, low heat release rates, low smoke, and low toxicity.
Crashworthiness features: The rolling stock has inter car couplers with crashworthiness features, which lessen the severity of injury to the passengers in case of accidents. Emergency doors: The rolling stock has emergency evacuation facilities at several vehicles to ensure well-directed evacuation of passengers in case of any emergency, including fire in the train.
Project for the Agra Metro Rail System’s Third Rail DC Traction

Agra Metro Trains The third rail that runs parallel to the trains will provide power for Metro. There won’t be any conventional OHE (Overhead Equipment), which is frequently disturbed by bird activity, kite flying, etc.

These issues won’t arise with the Third Rail System, and train operations will be more effective.

Use of Regenerative Braking in the Agra Metro: The trains in the Agra Metro will use their own braking mechanism to generate electricity. After applying breaks, the deceleration will be converted to energy. In metro trains, electric motors are employed to apply brakes, which might result in energy regeneration and subsequent use of that energy for train operation.

City’s Inconspicuous Metro Rail System: The metro rail project will be unobtrusive and easily integrate with the city’s beauty. Wires and duct pipes used in the utilities will all be hidden. This would significantly improve the metro train system’s aesthetic value.
