LHB- Linke Holfmann Busch (LHB) coaches are the passenger compartments of Indian Railways that have been developed by Linke-Hofmann-Busch of Germany[1] (taken over by Alstom in 1998[2]) and produced by Rail Coach Factory in Kapurthala, India.[3] They have been used since 2000 on the Indian Broad Gauge (1676 mm[4]) network of Indian railways. Initially, 24 air conditioned coaches were imported from Germany that would be used for the Shatabdi Expresses, after which the Rail Coach Factory started manufacturing after technology transfer.[5] The coaches are designed for an operating speed up to 160 km/h and could go up to 200 km/h.[6] However, they have been tested up to 180 kmph. Their length of 23.54m and a width of 3.24m means a higher passenger capacity, compared to conventional rakes.[7] The tare weight of the AC chair car was weighed as 39.5 Tons.[8]
