Mumbai: The Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train Project has achieved a significant milestone with the installation of 206,000 noise barriers along both sides of the 103 km. According to National High Speed Rail Corporation,

The train's long, sharp nose is designed to cut down on aerodynamic drag, which also helps reduce loud sounds caused by pressure waves when the train exits a tunnel.

India and Japan are close to finalising the design of the bullet trains for the Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail (MAHSR) Corridor, marking a major milestone in the project. The redesigned Japanese Shinkansen trains will be adapted to suit Indian conditions, with formal approval expected soon.

These barriers reflect and distribute the noise produced by the train aerodynamically as well as the sound generated by the wheels running along the tracks.

India and Japan are finalizing designs for bullet trains on the Mumbai-Ahmedabad corridor, modifying Shinkansen trains for Indian conditions. These modifications include enhanced luggage capacity, higher temperature tolerance,
