Chinese Company to implement high speed Train service in Bangladesh

[dray]

17 million USD per km is great value for money。

Asking any other country and it will set you back at least 40 million USD per km。

Japanese high-speed rail tech is just so so。Expensive but tech-wise just so so。

Japanese are operating HSRs since the time China didn't know how to spell it, they are successfully running HSRs with excellent safety records for decades, even China took Japanese help to build their HSR, and Japanese companies like Hitachi still provide some critical components to Chinese HSR, let's not claim that Chinese technologies are superior to Japanese.
Btw, 200 km speed doesn't qualify as HSR.

$4 billion for 232 km railways, that too for only 200 kmph speed is too high, this project will be loss making. But nothing to lose for BD since it will be Chinese investment. Congrats BD.

Btw, how many people travel between Dhaka and Chitagong every year, any idea?



Yes, don't travel in those trains unless you are too frustrated with your life.

Then you should also consider refrain from traveling the Delhi-Chennai route soon

Chittagong to Dhaka high speed train. Most welcomed. At present ,Chittagong and Dhaka well connected by excellent
expressway network. Just interested to know who funded and build the excellent expressway?

Are you talking about the 4 lane expressway that is under construction. Existing 2 lane expressway isnt any excellent. 4 lane expressway is funded by ppp.

Why refrain from travelling in this route? LOL

Honestly I think as of now, I don't really find a need for a HSR to ply on Dhaka-Chittagong route. We should spend that money on asking China to improve our current railway system. The money should also be spent on the planned Dhaka metro because it is a priority to prevent heavy traffic jams on the roads of Dhaka. Having a metro train system in Dhaka will increase the efficiency of the transport system in Dhaka. Now many people can travel on buses, trains and planes from Dhaka to Chittagong so HSR on this route is not necessary. That's just my point of view
