I find that for Vande Bharat Trains, it is mentioned as LHB rakes. Actually, Vande Bharat train sets are manufactured by ICF. Therefore, using a proper nomenclature for the rake should be appropriate.

Re# 6046426-1              
You've brought up a good point about the terminology. While Vande Bharat trains are indeed manufactured by the Integral Coach Factory (ICF), they do use LHB (Linke Hofmann Busch) technology for their rakes. However, it's important to note that there might be confusion because traditionally LHB refers to a specific type of German-designed railcar, but it's also used more broadly to refer to certain design principles. In this case, the Vande Bharat trains utilize LHB design principles for their rakes despite being manufactured by ICF. So, referring to them as "ICF-built LHB rakes" does seem like an appropriate way to describe them, acknowledging both their origin and the technology they incorporate.
