It also has provision of Divyang-friendly facilities (differently-abled friendly facilities).
It can achieve a maximum speed of 160 kmph due to faster acceleration and deceleration.

High-speed rail (HSR) is a type of rail transport that runs significantly faster than traditional rail traffic.
While there is no single standard that applies worldwide, new lines in excess of 250 kilometres per hour (160 mph) and existing lines in excess of 200 kilometres per hour (120 mph) are widely considered to be high-speed

Scientifically, in the bio-vacuum toilet, human waste is discharged into a biodegradable tank system and converted into organic matter through composting, which reduces the bad odour as well as the consumption of water.
