દેખાતી તો નથી, તો પછી ટ્રેનમાં ક્યાં હોય છે પાણીની ટાંકી? એક વારમાં ભરાય છે આટલું પાણી

According to TV9 Gujarati, many passengers often wonder about the source of water in train toilets and washbasins, as visible water tanks are absent from the exterior of the coaches. The report clarifies that water tanks are strategically installed underneath the train coaches, specifically between the chassis and the floor of the carriage. These tanks are designed to be integrated into the underframe to maintain the aerodynamic profile and structural integrity of the train.

These tanks are typically filled at major railway stations through specialized piping systems located at the platforms. Depending on the type of coach—such as the older ICF (Integral Coach Factory) design or the modern LHB (Linke Hofmann Busch) coaches—the capacity of these tanks varies, generally ranging from 1,000 to 1,800 liters per coach. This water supply is pressurized to ensure consistent flow to the washbasins and toilets throughout the journey.

This design is a standard feature of Indian Railways' rolling stock, ensuring that essential amenities remain functional during long-distance travel. The maintenance of these systems, including regular cleaning and refilling, is a core part of the operational protocols at major terminals across the Indian rail network.
