In Bangladesh, train travel remains popular due to its reasonable price, convenience, safety and comfort. People prefer taking the train when such option is available. China's "bullet trains" can travel as fast as 300 kilometres per hour! At present, India has started to modernise its railway sector - gradually replacing the country's obsolete trains and railway infrastructure. In order to improve its public image, Indian Railways introduced a new train service between Mumbai and Goa called Tejas Express. Promptly, the new train has won the heart of passengers with its high standard of services including Wi-Fi internet and other entertainments. Besides, passengers of India's air-conditioned trains can call attendees at work on a special button. However, the service standard of Bangladesh Railway is comparatively poor and requires more improvement. Similar to India or China, the government can introduce high-speed trains and attract more passengers while earning more revenue from the railway sector.
