Vande Bharat goes about as fast as most Amtrak trains here in the US. Hopefully they can get speeds up to 220+ kmph

In a country already with a bad reputation for "casteism", this certainly helps!

vande sadharan is an embarrassing train. It shouldn't exist.

I'm telling you Vande Bharat looks better than any train I've seen here in the US.

This looks to be approximately the same speed as the "Acela Express" in America, which is the fastest operating train in this entire country (a "developed" country). Acela covers 735km in 6.75 hours. Delhi RRTS looks much shorter????

I haven't been in India since 2016 but I had a dream that by 2030 there were bullet train corridors. Mumbai to Delhi. Delhi to Varanasi. Delhi to Kolkata. Delhi to Kochi. Delhi to Bangalore. One can dream, right?

I saw something about railway babus being removed? But I haven't seen anything about it since then. Was this a big deal? Important?

Suresh Prabhu era was a great era for this government. The current regime is useless. Most likely trashed.

This is great! Defund the federal government. It'll help balance the budget. But here's the issue, if the same babus in these organizations just move to the new entity, did anything really change?

What's the word on Ahmedabad-Mumbai HSR? Any new details on any other new lines?

HSR

I stand by my previous statements: While Yogiji government in power, Kumar in Bihar, and now Himanta-da in Assam... quickly, on war footing, land acquisition and alignment studies must occur along Delhi-Lucknow-Varanasi-Patna-Guwahati line.

If it was faulty track laying and the unions blamed India and China replaced.. it's a PR fail (what more do you expect). Indian government didn't fight hard enough. China realizes that Indian quality > Chinese quality. Thus they need subversive means to get rid of competitors.

Any progress on bullet train?
