en.Wedoany.com Reported - India's BEML is advancing the manufacturing of the country's first indigenous high-speed train, the B28, which will serve the Mumbai–Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail Project. This Indian high-speed rail project spans approximately 508 kilometers and is India's first dedicated high-speed rail corridor, planned to connect the two major cities of Mumbai and Ahmedabad.

BEML management stated that the first prototype train is expected to be completed in early 2027, after which it will be transported to the Surat base for testing. The Indian Railways department has previously proposed that the B28 train will be prioritized for the Surat to Vapi section, which is about 97 kilometers long, with plans to prepare it for service by August 2027.

The B28 train is being manufactured at BEML's Aditya factory in Bengaluru, with the contract awarded by the Integral Coach Factory, covering the design, manufacturing, and commissioning of two high-speed trains. As the trains supporting the 508 km Mumbai–Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail Project enter the manufacturing phase, India's high-speed rail vehicles, local manufacturing, testing and certification, and line commissioning preparations will continue to advance.
