NEW DELHI: Overnight intercity travel could soon get faster as railways plans to run trains at a speed of 200-250 kmph on new high speed corridors to be announced in April this year. Railways minister Piyush Goyal has given the task to the railway board to identify high speed corridors and work on cutting the cost of construction by less than half.

印度铁路计划在新建高铁走廊开通时速200-250公里的火车。这些高铁项目将于今年4月宣布。

如此一来，夜间城际旅行将会提速。

印度铁道部长已经将这一任务交给铁道局，要求后者确认要修哪些高铁走廊，并把修高铁的成本减少一半。

A highly placed source said the minister has plan to announce 10,000 km of new high speed corridors in April 2018 fit to run trains at speed of 200-250 kmph, considering that some journeys have to be overnight and need not to be done in few hours by bullet trains running at the speed of 350 kmph and more.

一位消息人士透露，印度铁道部长将于2018年4月宣布修建1万公里高铁的计划，设计时速为200-250公里。

200-250公里的这一时速，是考虑到过夜出行需要，无需几个小时跑完，也就不需要350公里时速的高铁。

This is called progress but the opposition still wants the people to live in the middle ages while they travel by jet.

这就是所谓的进步。

反对派仍然希望人们生活在中世纪，而他们倒好，坐飞机坐得很爽。

The increase in speed should not be at the cost of safety. Prominence should be given for safety

提速不能以牺牲安全为代价

安全才是最重要的

孟买到艾哈迈达巴德的城际铁路也应加进去。

高铁可以不用修了
