It could be sabotage. If thats the case as seen from past few month from news of various attempt of sabotages .. there is little Railways can do other than employ technology or manual personnel to monitor or inspect all lines...

The saboteurs will break the cameras too if you install them.

You need cameras and sensors in Sky: fleet of drones. It would require some lateral thinking.

Only 280 kmph? Japan's go at least 350 or upwards to 420.

At least go through the previous posts on railways/infra thread before commenting! They are prototyping this thing from scratch - you expect them to develop 400+ kmph capable trainsets right off the bat? MAHSR will feature shinkansen trainsets (part of GoI's deal with the JICA); this development is unrelated.

Track electrification has reached ~97%:




Expected to achieve full 100% Electrification by end of this year or by mid of next year.​

I found that on Vande Bharat there were balance issues. Eg I could feel when the train was turning and people were kind of falling onto each others. I did not experience this with TGV. I understand this is first generation, but I hope it's fixed

perhaps a three sensor system, one in the front and two on each side of the engine, with sensors IR optical or mmw or both, which acts as early warning system, and also acts as a data recorder for suspicious movement along the tracks when train passes. and the ability to store data at a central location for a limited period of time for AI driven facial recognition and mapping. trains are always moving around, so scanning is near continuous, probability of zero clues when an incident happens reduces.

with high speed wireless routers available these days, data transfer can happen at every station, without manual intervention.

this will take care of stone pelters too.

does not solve the problem entirely, but a step forward.

a version of this seems to have been opted.

This is standard on all Western trains. I'm genuinely shocked that somehow in India, a country with a notorious reputation for casteism, somehow, thinks it's ok to have "Vande Bharat" and "Vande Sadharan"

Lol wut? What does casteism have anything to do with Vande Bharat or Vande Sadharan?

they make locopilots work even on the rest day, extending their daily working hours which is not allowed

Cool lagne ke liye India and apne culture ko gali dena padta hai.

90% Indian has never seen or faced any castism but still complaint about it.

But in the West, Brown Sipoy face racism every day, even school kids trolls in the parks, trams, trains, bus, clubs everywhere but brown Sipoy never forget to appraise their masters.

I am originally from a tribal area in the Sheohar district of Bihar, where railways have yet to reach. I am grateful to the Modi government for announcing a railway project that will finally connect our region. This same railway line will also extend to Sikkim

What China did was side benefits of huge electronic industries supply chain which allowed it to install cameras at vast. Cameras need repair replacement frequently- unless you have wherewithal to maintain and replace them - installation being pointless. Case in point speed/violation cameras. They go kaput frequently - only to be replaced/repaired on next financial year.

In India - it was once same with traffic lights or playthings in park- once broken it used to take long time to repair or replace. As manufacturing strength along with financial muscle grew - you see more of them getting replaced when damages at better frequency.

Sabotages are happening for many years. Earlier their were common ammo dump fires too. As economic muscle grows - so will India be able to protect itself better.

I don't know about Chinese, but the ones used in for securing the area or for public safety are rock solid, almost nothing happens to them they are quite expensive so don't know in this case it would apply.
