Latest On Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train: 70 Daily Rides, 7 Kms Under Sea

perhaps, this is the New scheme introduced by our new Railway Minister, Piyush Goel.

Significantly, the fare of this train will be lower than the aircraft. This train will complete the distance from Mumbai to Ahmedabad in just 2 hours, While others train will take 7 hours to complete this distance. So this is a good thing.

Anyhow, this train is Unique , I mean, part of the journey is In a tunnel

@rambabu, This was started 2 years back...but on ground starting now..

OK. Though the project started 2 years ago, I am of the opinion, it is really unique.

yes, i agree with you.

Welcome. Thanks for posting such a good post.

This scheme had already started in the tenure of our old railway minister Suresh Prabhu. Yes the work of the project will now start from 14th Sep. Whose work is expected to be completed by 2023. I would like to send you an old link of July 2016. So you can see.

I know all the details pertaining to this  project. 

The job was  when Suresh Prabhu was the Railway Minister. ater that, because, the project was delayed, the Present Railway Minister took up the job, with few modifications like, a part of the journey is through the Tunnel

This line will then be exteded from Ahmedabad to Delhi in future.

Yes, extension of this line and other detaills too, I knew.

Apparently, there are more such fast trains planned in the future. At the same time unless it becomes a reality , one cannot be sure if it is economically viable because we have cheap airfares and air journey is shorter compared to the bullet train.

An issue as important as  Mumbai - Ahmedabad Bullet Train iI is being shown in all the important news Channels.  One does not need any link, unless, he or she is illeterate.

Yes this is new things will come to India so We welcome this new train and system. Hope will cover other area successfully .

Soon, Bullet Trains will come to India. The best feature of these Bullet trains is, they are much cheaper than an Aeroplane ticket

While it s too much to expect any informative post for you , at least use some common sense while jumping in everywhere. You speak as if you have already travelled by bullet train and know what the fare is , while it is still on papers only ...you and your silly comments which all of us have to suffer 

That is merewrong allegation on me. Know that I am a regular News Paper reader. Even today, I read a vernacularpaper about  how cheap, and inexpensive these tickets in the Bullet trains.

But several experts say that it is too early to take the government’s claim of Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train fares being cheaper than airfares at face value. According to initial estimates, Bullet train’s fare is expected to be around Rs 3,300, nearly twice than a one-way flight ticket to Ahmedabad.

Yes. because of these  cheap rates, these trains, have become popular in different Countries. For example, the distance between Ginan in China is 409  Km.and the cost is  12 Dollars. The same distance, in Bullet Trains ,the cost is 30 Dollars. Of course, though the cost is more, lot of time is saved..
