Karnataka

Change is the only constant. It’s hard to swallow, but accepting the truth is the only way out. Life recently threw me into a wild rollercoaster ride without a seatbelt. Adapting to changes, finding a new job, and breaking bonds made it a challenging journey altogether. Coping with everything was tough, but I eventually managed to navigate through it all. It would be unfair not to mention the support my circle provided me throughout the process. It was last month I finally returned to Bangalore after spending a couple of months in my hometown. I realised that the change of environment was exactly what I needed.

We traveled by train from Bangalore to Mysore, a journey that took around two hours. Boarding the Chennai-Mysore Vande Bharat Express from SBC/KSR (Bangalore City) Railway Station, I had a pleasant first-time experience on this train. Though it ran at an average speed of 100 km/h, I expected it to go faster. However, I later learned that there are speed limits for the Vande Bharat Express. On the Delhi-Bhopal route, it runs at a maximum speed of 160 km/h, while on other routes, it travels at speeds ranging from 110 to 130 km/h.
