We are setting two 100 metres training tracks at the site.

Finally, the rails will come over the track slabs,” the official said.HSRTI will provide advanced training modules on cutting edge technologies relating to high speed rails as it will have all those facilities which are available at HSRTI of JR-East Railway Company at Shin Shirakawa in Japan like the driver simulator, signal and telecom equipment, OHE and power supply equipment among others.
