Earlier this week, the Western Railway’s Ahmedabad division carried out a successful trial run of the first non-suburban metro train service between Ahmedabad and Bhuj. The train will link Kutch, one of India’s largest districts by geographical area, with Ahmedabad, Gujarat’s commercial hub. The train will depart from Bhuj station at 5:05 am and arrive in Ahmedabad at 10:50 am, covering approximately 360 kilometres in 6 hours and 45 minutes.
