Top Fastest Trains in 2025:Efficient transport systems are crucial in today’s times to enhance the way people access public spaces as cities continue to develop at an unprecedented rate. High-speed rail network, equipped with modern technology that enables reduced travel time, and promotes economic growth, acting as a sustainable option for commuters and governments alike, have become the need of the hour.
In India, the Vande Bharat Express has made great strides in becoming the fastest running train as of 2024, by reaching a maximum speed of 180 km/hr. However, given operational considerations, it typically operates at a reduced speed of 160 km/h. Although trains in India currently do not operate at a speed higher than that of the Vande Bharat, the country is making significant progress in developing high-speed rail infrastructure, which will enhance connectivity and reduce travel times across major urban centres.
Other countries like Germany, Italy, France, Spain, China, and Japan have continued to secure extensive high-speed rail networks, with trains that can travel with a speed of over 300 km/hr, according to The Indian Express report.
