The second Vande Bharat Express, set to run from Chennai to Mysuru, is scheduled for a virtual flag-off by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday.

The eight-coach train will exclusively feature sitting seats for its short-distance coverage.
Commencing its inaugural run at 9.15 am from MGR Chennai Central railway station, the train will stop at Katpadi and Krishnarajapuram before reaching Bengaluru at 2.20 pm.
Operating every day except Wednesdays, the regular service between Mysuru and Chennai will extend to Mysuru starting April 5.
