The carriages were built using high-quality materials and advanced technology to ensure that they are more stable, and sound and fire-proof, with their waste treatment system meeting hygienic standards.
The new carriages will be part of the five-star SE1 and SE2 trains operating on the Hanoi - Ho Chi Minh City Da Nang route.
The VNR also said that train ticket prices will be reduced by 8% on routes from Hanoi to central localities such as Vinh, Dong Hoi, and Da Nang from now to July 31.
In addition, the reduction of train ticket prices, from 8% to 13% depending on the route, began on Thursday and will continue from August 1-15.
