  1. 182233444555 millon


  2. UPTO 150 KM/HR

  3. it can be maximum upto 150 kmps

  4. in Europe speed of express train between 220/250 miles per  

    hours in some places when they have long tracks than they

    speed away

  5. In India?

    Most trains rarely go beyond 80 kmph. Though the Rajdhani on certain straight sections can do 130 kmph.

    Indian rails come with reliefs for heat because of the low cost material and manufacturing used in the tracks. This and the wheel track (widest in the world -> largest and heaviest  coaches) make it difficult to attain high speeds. We also use very old tech 12 in-line cylinder diesels (instead of electric/hybrid) engines in most routes. These deliver anywhere between 850hp~2000hp. When you consider that cars themselves deliver 100+hp, the engine power is very inadequate for reaching high speeds.

    Overseas the TGV (France) and Shinkansen (Japan) do 200mph on certain stretches.

  6. Fastest is in Japan and France hits 250 miles per hour.

    If in India it will depend on the train, from schedule you can calculate average speed vary easily.

    To give you general idea:

    This is only the speed , track condition can force them to reduce it. It is the track conditions that limites the speed plus traffic that will allow to do its capacity.

    Steam locomotive top speed-60 miles per hour of few minutes.

    Electric locomative over head wiers-top speed-75 miles per hour.

    Electric locomative over third rail-top speed-80 miles per hour.

    Desiel Electric-top speed-90 miles per hour.

  7. About 300km/h service speed on high speed routes

    upto 225km/h on normal routes

  8. In India it depends upon the route and condition of tracks. Maximum speed is 150 Kms/Hour for Delhi-Bhopal route.
