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

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.
