China to operate more 'Fuxing' bullet trains
By Luo Wangshu | chinadaily.com.cn | Updated: 2018-04-02 21:17
China will operate more "Fuxing" bullet trains everyday as a new train diagram will be put into operation beginning April 10.
According to China Railway Corp, the national railway operator, China will begin carrying out the new train diagram with adjustments to routes, speeds and train numbers.
The diagram shows that eight pairs of "Fuxing" bullet trains traveling at a speed of 350 kilometers per hour will be added to the Beijing - Shanghai railway. The total number of "Fuxing" bullet trains running every day across the country will reach 114.5 pairs, linking 23 municipalities and provincial capitals.
The "Fuxing" train, also known as "Rejuvenation", is a new bullet train model mainly developed based on China's railway standards and technologies, and aims to adapt to China's environment and rail transport patterns.
The adoption of "Fuxing" trains in June has shortened the Beijing-Shanghai travel time to 4 hours and 24 minutes. After the new diagram is put into operation, the travel time between Beijing and Shanghai will be further reduced to 4 hours and 18 minutes. Travel time between Beijing and Hangzhou, and between Beijing and Hefei will be cut by 36 and 20 minutes respectively, according to China Railway Corp.
More express and large cargo freight trains, such as China Railway Express, a freight train between China and Europe, and freight trains to transport coal, will be added, too.
The trains are expected to transport an extra of 200 million metric tons of coal thanks to the enhancement of the transport capacity, according to the China Railway Corp.

A high-speed railway line that connects Hong Kong with the Chinese mainland is about to be launched. The section in Hong Kong is now in a test run. The Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link (XRL) will cut the travel time by train from Hong Kong to South China's Guangzhou to just 48 minutes.

CRRC Corp Ltd, one of the world's largest rail vehicle manufacturers, is expected to roll out an "intelligent" train during the 2022 Winter Olympic Games, according to the company's chairman.
"The prototype train is 'smart' in all areas, from technology to design to management," Liu Hualong, chairman of CRRC, said at a panel discussion during the Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference 2018 on Monday. [Special coverage]
By 2020, the company will be on course to unveil a cross-border high-speed train service at 400 km/h that can alternate between different track gauges, Liu said, facilitating outbound rail services to the likes of Russia and Southeast Asia.
Also in three years, it plans to launch sample maglev trains with speed of 600 km/h, which would be faster than any other train currently in operation.
Other initiatives to leapfrog the smart transportation hierarchy include the introduction of high-speed train and subway cars made of carbon fiber, he noted.

BEIJING, April 23 (Xinhua) -- China will complete the testing of high-speed trains that will run on a new line linking Beijing and Zhangjiakou, co-hosts of the 2022 Winter Olympics, by the first half of next year, an expert familiar with the project said.
A prototype of the trains will be manufactured and assembled by the end of this year, said He Huawu, technical advisor to the general manager of China Railway Corporation and member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering.
The Olympic trains will be based on the Fuxing bullet train design, but new technology will make them smarter and greener.
Construction of the Beijing-Zhangjiakou line is underway and running smoothly, according to China Railway Corporation.
The route is considered historically significant as the Beijing-Zhangjiakou railway, China's first independently-built railway,opened to traffic in 1909.

China and Japan develop aerotrain running 400 to 500 kms per hour

A high-speed aerotrain that could run 400 to 500 kilometers per hour is being developed by China and Japan in a joint effort, Chinese media Chongqing Morning Post reported.
The aerotrain doesn't run on traditional fuel resources such as coal, gas or electricity, and is expected to change the world's transportation system, according to experts.
Trial manufacturing and test runs of the first and second generation aerotrain have been conducted in Japan, said Lai Chenguang, a professor of Chongqing University of Technology, who participates in the project.
The train will be fully powered by natural energy, reducing costs while improving speed, he noted. "If the train runs at a speed of 500 km/h, the energy it consumes is only 1/3 of that consumed by current high-speed trains, and 1/6 of the maglev trains," Lai said.
The new design of an annular spoiler is a major highlight of the aerotrain. Different from the traditional, vertical spoilers which tend to produce unstable airflow, the annular spoiler can increase the lift-drag ratio by 30% to 40%, vastly improving the operation stability.
In addition, the load capacity of the train will also be enhanced thanks to the new design.
Based on aerodynamic studies, Chongqing University of Technology has furthered the research and has since made the third generation model of the train "LOOP".
Lai said that the zero-pollution train is seemingly impossible to manufacture, but it is actually achievable.

Great cooperation between two neighbors.
Japan is laying the groundwork to join the BRI.
Want to see more of the same.
