The Indore-Patna Express derailed in Uttar Pradesh killing over 120 people!


After the Indore-Patna Express derailed in Uttar Pradesh killing over 120 people, it has come to light that most of them were ICF (Integral Coach Factory) coaches which are known for piling up during accidents.



To avoid such accidents, all the ICF coaches were supposed to be replaced by LHB Linke Hoffman Busch (LHB) coaches as promised by Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu during the 2015-16 Budget.

According to an Indian Express report, the Railway Board has not been able to put the modern LHB Linke Hoffman Busch (LHB) coaches in all the trains.

Currently, there are around 5,000 to 8,000 LHB coaches and 55,000 ICF coaches of varying ages are in circulation.
