తొట్టతొలి దేశీయ రైలు బోగీ తయారీకి షష్టిపూర్తి సంవత్సరం -3 అక్టోబర్ 1955 • 1955: మద్రాసు వద్ద గల పెరంబూరు లోని ఇంటెగ్రల్ కోచ్ ఫాక్టరీ నుండి, మొట్ట మొదటి రైలు పెట్టె ప్రధాని జవహర్లాల్ నెహ్రూ చేతుల మీదుగా విడుదలైంది. Started in 1952, the Integral Coach Factory (ICF) is located in Chennai, India. Its primary products are rail coaches. Most of the coaches manufactured are supplied to the Indian Railways, but it has also manufactured coaches for railway companies in other countries, including Thailand, Burma, Taiwan, Zambia, Philippines, Tanzania, Uganda, Vietnam, Nigeria, Mozambique, Bangladesh, Angola and Sri Lanka. The coach factory provides primarily for the Indian Railways, a number of different coaches - first and second class coaches, pantry and kitchen cars, luggage and brake vans, self-propelled coaches, electric, diesel and mainline electric multiple units (EMU, DMU, MEMU), metro coaches and Diesel Electric Tower Cars (DETC), Accident Relief Medical Vans (ARMV), Inspection Cars (RA), Fuel Test Cars, Track Recording Cars, the latest coaches are for the Deccan Odyssey (a luxury train of the Indian Railways), and coaches for MRVC. However the air-conditioned train-sets manufactured by ICF for Kolkata Metro have repeatedly broken down causing disruption of services causing immense problem to commuters. According to newspaper reports the air-conditioned rakes have been sent to Kolkata without conducting dry runs because the Integral Coach Factory does not have third rail testing facilities. Caution: Alas! We should be more careful in our HYDERABAD METRO RAIL COACHES.
