India's own Bullet train SOON!

Yes that's true, and that's what our railways have in stored for us. Though its still in the planning stages but the invitation of global tenders for conducting a pre-feasibility study of a high-speed train on the Pune-Ahmedabad-Mumbai route, which could cut travel time between the cities by nearly half have already been started.

If everything goes as planned then the distance of 660 KM between Pune - Ahmedabad which is covered by an overnight journey will be reduced drastically.

Fist phase of the speed train between Pune and Ahemdabad will start with the feasibility study by an consultant of the proposed speed corridor which will focus on financial, operational and technicalviability of the project and if all well we will soon be having our own bullet train cruising at 300 kmph.

However, it is anticipate that the cost factor is the major concern as it is expected to be costing about Rs8,000 crore and require dedicated tracks, free from any roadblocks.
