India has also started the work of making an indigenous bullet train with a speed of more than 250 kilometers per hour. It is being estimated that this train is going to leave all the trains currently running on the Indian Railways network behind in terms of speed. This bullet train is being built on the Vande Bharat platform, whose maximum speed is already said to be 220 km per hour. The design of this high-speed train is also being developed at the Integral Coach Factory (ICF) of Indian Railways located in Chennai.
What is considered a high speed train: Reports say that according to a government official, the process of making an indigenous bullet train has also been started. Globally, a train with a speed of more than 250 km per hour is called a high-speed train. These include the French TGV and Japan's Shinkansen.
India is dependent on Japanese technology: The news says that at present India is dependent on Japanese technology for bullet trains, through this the bullet train is going to run on the Ahmedabad to Mumbai line. Preparations for this are going on. The Shinkansen E5 series bullet trains, which are being planned to operate on the Mumbai-Ahmedabad route in India, can reach speeds of up to 320 km per hour.
Focus on increasing the speed of trains: The official says that till now the primary focus has been on increasing the speed of Indian Railways trains. The new variant Vande Bharat trains will now go from zero to 100 kmph in 52 seconds, while the existing Bullet trains do so in 54 seconds.
Where will the bullet trains run: If reports are to be believed, the Vande Bharat trains, which are made in India, have been made by ICF. Bullet trains to be built in India will run on the recently announced North, South and East corridors. According to the official, Indian technology and domestic manufacturing is going to be used more in the new corridor.
