A well-timed video showcasing both a Vande Bharat Express and a plane in a single frame is gaining popularity on social media. The footage captures the sleek new train moving on the tracks adjacent to a road. A captivating moment unfolds as a plane flies directly above the train. The perspective creates an illusion of the plane taking off, and the substantial size of the aircraft suggests proximity to an airport. The video was shared on Tuesday by the citizen engagement platform of the Government of India on the platform X (formerly Twitter).
While sharing this undated clip, MyGovIndia wrote, “Breathtaking moment! The Vande Bharat Express glides on the tracks below, while Airplane soars high in the skies of Kochi.” So far this post has over one lakh views and over 4,000 likes.

An X user commented on it and wrote, “Creating a visual symphony in Kochi’s skies – a celebration of progress and connectivity.” Another person remarked, “Wow! What a mesmerizing moment!”
In December last year, former Norwegian diplomat Erik Solheim shared a video on X that showed how an Indian Railway train glides through the forest cover. While sharing this drone footage, he wrote, “Incredible India ! Is there a greener rail route anywhere? Bengaluru – Udupi Railway line, from Sakleshpur to Kukke Subramanya, Karnataka.”

The official X account of the Incredible India campaign also commented on Solheim’s post and wrote, “Thank you @ErikSolheim for sharing a glimpse of the Bengaluru – Udupi Railway line, from Sakleshpur to Kukke Subramanya, Karnataka. It is one of the greenest rail route in India for enjoyable views of Western Ghats.”
Despite its massive train network and scene routes, Indian Railways often gets criticism for regular delays and overcrowding. In August last year, a video went viral that showed a man beating the crowd in an overcrowded coach by building a hammock.

Video creator Hathim Ismayil shared a video that showed a young boy sleeping on a makeshift hammock that was made out of a bedsheet. This hammock was secured on all four sides by the upper births of the train. So far this clip has over 10 lakh likes. Commenting on this video, an Instagram user wrote, “His trust about the blanket is more than we think”. Another user wrote, “He trust his bedsheet more than train.”
