The latest update on the country’s first high-speed train, the Bullet Train, has come. Railway staff have started receiving training to ensure its timely operation. This training is not being given in India, but in Japan. Since only bullet trains made with Japanese technology will run in India, the training is being given there. The Railway Minister has announced the launch of the Bullet Train in 2027, and Indian Railways has started preparations for it.
Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnav said at an event that to ensure timely operation of the bullet train, special training is required for all the staff involved. This is because the bullet train is coming to India for the first time. Therefore, training is required for everyone from loco pilots to maintenance staff. For this purpose, training is being given sequentially in Japan, so as to ensure that there is no disruption in the operation of regular trains.
