High speed / Semi-High speed rail projects of Indian Railways

Ironhide said:
Disgusting step by babus and politicians, after spending tens of thousands of crores on the project, they are handicapping the train for saving few tens of crores. From World class Shinkasen at 350 KMPH to BEML at 250 KMPH. Even 250 speed is ambitious, most probably will cap at 200 and then give excuses that it is better for safety etc

We came up with Vande Bharat but fastest Vande Bharat runs at an average speed of 96 kmph. One Vande Bharat runs at an average speed of 66 KMPH. The role of Babus in India is to ensure that no excellent thing may happen. Even if we make a 280 kmph train, it will run at a speed not more than 120 kmph.
 
I stayed in Bangladesh for a while and now planning a trip to India through India Private Tours & Local Tour Guides Just wondering, is this new high-speed rail (like the Mumbai-Ahmedabad one) already operational, or still under development? Would love to experience one of these new trains if they’re running!, thinking of exploring the country by train.

New Delhi –
Japan plans to provide East Japan Railway E5 and E3 series shinkansen for free to India as inspection vehicles for its national high-speed railway under construction in the western region of the South Asian country, it was learned Tuesday.


One train set each from the E5 and E3 series will be delivered to India in early 2026, after they are fitted with inspection equipment, according to informed sources.




The Japanese and Indian governments plan to adopt in the early 2030s the next-generation E10 series shinkansen of JR East for the roughly 500-kilometer high-speed rail link between Mumbai and Ahmedabad in western India. The delivery of the E10 trains will unlikely be in time for the line's partial opening, aimed for August 2027.
