India's first passenger train was flagged off on its maiden run between (later Victoria Terminus, now Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus and Thane — a distance of 21 miles covered in 57 minutes, at 3.35pm on April 16, 1853. Drawn by three engines, Sahib, Sindh and Sultan, the train lurched forward amid fanfare and celebration.
The Indian Railways has grown to be the biggest government entity in India ever since. After 163 years of the first train run, India is all set to get a superfast bullet train pretty soon.
The fastest passenger train in the world can run at a speed of 603 kilometres per hour. It has a previous record of running at 581 kilometres per hour.

Traveling by buses forms the most common mode of transportation in India. All cities are interconnected through a huge bus network generally run by state owned corporations. In general, the bus service is available between larger cities at short intervals and are very cheap when compared with other countries.
Nearly all cities and towns have their own ‘bus stand’ (a common term used for bus station, where all buses congregate to move further to their destinations). The buses are the preferred vehicle of choice for the common man. They are quick, travel over large distances and are very light on the pocket. You can very well calculate, a 5-hr journey for around 250 kms will cost you only around $4
