It is proposed to run a bullet train at 320 kmph between Mumbai and Ahmedabad. The total distance between the two cities will be 508 kilometers, with 12 stations. The travel time between the two cities will be reduced to three hours thanks to this train.
Bullet Train Ticket Price: Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnav has stated that the bullet train fare will remain the same as the First AC fare. Although he stated that the government has not yet made a decision on the rent, he stated that it will be within the people’s reach. This is being done on the basis of First AC, which is not much. It will be less expensive than flying, and the facilities will be excellent. He stated that the rent would be fixed once the project was completed.
Ashwini Vaishnav visited the bullet train project on Monday and clarified that the second high-speed rail project would be started only after the completion of the Mumbai-Ahmedabad high-speed rail project. He stated that the goal of running the country’s first bullet train between Surat and Bilimora in Gujarat in 2026 will be met because significant progress is being made in this direction.
Vaishnav traveled to Surat to assess the status of the government’s ambitious Ahmedabad-Mumbai bullet train project. He stated that the first bullet train between Surat and Bilimora will be operational in 2026. We’re making good progress, and we’re confident that by then, we’ll have finished running the train.
The journey will be completed in 3 hours
