Indian Railways conducted a trial run of its longest and heaviest freight train between Korba in Chhattisgarh to Rajnandgaon on 15 August. It had 295 loaded wagons and carried over 27,000 t of coal which is enough to fire 3000 MW of power plant for one full day. This is three times the capacity of existing railway rakes which carry about 9,000 t of coal in one journey. The train is named called Super Vasuki.
