No it's just visual effect. The metro goes inside a tunnel which is way below the river bed of Hoogly. There is no fish there. You can probably see some fish in someone's market bag ЁЯШВ

Re# 5990993-16              
Nothing is gonna happen till at least August because of elections. Also only trainsets will be permitted to go at 160 kph. Full length Rajdhani/Shatabdi may only go upto 150 kph max and non AC will remain 130kph.

Yeah but no eligible trains in that section. Only 16C or less length trains with fully AC composition is planned for 160kph. Maybe once VB Sleeper is introduced in GC route.

Re# 5990993-19              
Afaik it's 2 prototypes but depends whether one of those gets the HWH-NDLS route. First one definitely will go to WR. The other option for 160kph on this route is if HWH-Gaya/BSB VBE is introduced at some point.

Re# 5990993-22              
ADI - MMCT for sure. Some other parts of mumbai delhi route would follow . Imo HWH DDU will take a long time but HWH DHN maybe by next year if trainsets are introduced on that route . Rajdhani maybe upgraded to 150 in some sections too. Probably need push pull wap 5 for 150 kph Rajdhani.

Agree
So from yesterday's video of newstation interview of RM, it's clear that ADI-MMCT is indeed gonna be the second 160 kph stretch possibly by the end of this year. For the trunk routes, it's unlikely in near future, Delhi abhi dur h. I suspect smoothening of curves is going to be very challenging and so the full trunk route can never be upgraded. Straighter portions might be given the go but maybe not before at least another 5-10 yrs

Likely fake. IR has many condemned rakes and NASA or any other foreign country never has any info about their location. And NASA is not dumb that it will mistake a train carriage rake for an ICBM.
