Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw has announced that India’s first bullet train will make its inaugural 100 km run between Surat and Vapi in August 2027. The high-speed trains are designed to operate at 320 km/h, dramatically transforming intercity travel. Once the full 508 km Mumbai–Ahmedabad corridor is completed by 2029, travel time between Mumbai and Ahmedabad will drop to under 2 hours. The project marks a historic leap for Indian rail infrastructure, promising faster connectivity, economic growth, job creation, and advanced technology transfer.

India’s first bullet train to run Surat–Vapi in Aug 2027 🚄
320 km/h | Mumbai–Ahmedabad under 2 hrs by 2029 🇮🇳

Hate to break it to them, but nobody goes to the major cities outside Sydney, and if they want to there are cheaper air travel options.
Nobody is that desperate to go from Paramatta to Byron Bay in 2 hours for an orange juice and some hemp art.
