Kanpur: The second set of the Metro train arrived through the road route from the Savli Alstom (Gujarat) factory in the industrial city on Tuesday.
The first set of this train has arrived at the end of last month.
The new Metro train set will now be assembled and parked at the depot built in Politechnic Ground near Gurudev Crossing.
Both Metro trains will be used during the trial, which will begin from mid-November.
This metro train also has three coaches as before.
For priority corridors between IIT and Motijheel, eight Metro trains will ply.
While two of them arrived, six more trains will come to the city in January 2022.
A total of eight Metro trains will run on a nine kilometers long corridor stretch.
Each train has the capacity to accommodate more than 900 passengers.
For the first time, it can be noted that the metro train is orange and gray.
Meanwhile, work on priority corridors occurs at a fast and almost complete speed so the trial and then the final launch of the Metro service can be held on schedule.
Meanwhile, work at the Metro station is almost over and now completing work is still ongoing, the installation of the signaling system is also almost complete.
