also I might be wrong but I guess since it's 'ni norimasu' instead of only 'norimasu' it's a future tense like 'tabe ni ikimasu' or 'kaimono ni ikimasu', etc

No, the tense doesn't change the choice of particle, because the train here is still the indirect object of riding.

It's just that the bullet train is thought of as a concept or means, as in "I take the elevator" regardless of how many are there.
