Now and then there are announcements that India is talking to Japan for the fast trains. It is waste of funds as long as without ticket travel is not curbed.

Mumbai k traffic main cycle chalayega kya. ya fir cycle ko railway track par dodane ka mood hai. vaise teri ichchha hai to tu cycle se ja main to issi train main jaunga
When will we see such a development in India ? If we cannot innovate, then at least copy the technology and bring these fast trains to India so that the rich kings can travel in them.

You're WRONG my dear friend. Get your facts right. Thrust SSC is a project for designing a car that would break Mach 1 speed. Please go to http://www.thrustssc.com/ or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThrustSSC for more info. Don't jump to assumptions / conclusions before you read your facts. Research...research...research :)

thrust SSC has already broken the Mach 1 speed barrier in 1997 (check the webpage link you gave). I live in Coventry where it was built and seen it a million times.

The main reason is the cost involved in building such trains and not to mention, the safetly issues.

Ur name suits you.. Jaanwar..!!!! Fit for nothing....!!! India has the best engineers of all times. If you dont know, go and check all the best engineering done.

And Sudheendra, my response to your comment that "India has best engineers of all times".
Most of the Indian "engineers" end up doing servicing jobs because of lack of real engineering skills. Just speaking in English and acting like Westerners doesn't make them an Engineer.

arey Jaanwar, just b'cos you couldn't justify earning an engineering degree doesn't mean all the engineers in India are like you. Its people like you who are dragging India backwards.
And am sure you would still must be a loser even in US. Earning dollars doesn't mean u achieved success.

We seem to have different opinions. But I am sure there are many Indians out there who will agree with me.
Bihar me aayengey na aap, to hum aapko ee train se bhi jyada tez daurangey...aap aisa bhagiyega ki beta 600kmph ka record bana dijiyega. boojhey? Na boojhey to abhi dauratey hain...sambhar khakar taiyyar ho jaaye.

It shattered the current record for the conventional rail trains, but fell short of the record set by the magnetic train. I didn't see anything wrong with his reporting.
See, Its ok for France and other European nations to look at such trains as they have the infratructure. Also, the distance between the borders makes it relatively convenient to travel by trains rather than flight when you take into consideration the checkin time, etc..etc.. India is a large country, and our air transport infrastructure is increasing at a rapid pace. More and more people will opt to travel by planes rather than trains. Also, if I have to make an honest prediction. In the next 25 years, the Indian Railways will be in the same boat as AMTRAK in the US. The indian mass is going to have the money power to travel by other means. I firmly believe, trains are not the mode of transportation for the Indian masses taking into consideration the rate of growth and development right now.

well, I believe if you consider the a/c coaches in India, its already in the same boat with AMTRAK
