Two prototypes of Standardised CRH350 are officially launched today

2012年开始,在中国铁路总公司的指导下,中国中车(原中国南车与中国北车),开始集合国内有关企业、高校科研单位等优势力量,产学研用紧密结合、协调创新,开展了中国标准动车组研制工作。2013年12月完成总体技术条件制定,2014年9月完成方案设计,2015年6月下线。中国标准动车组的设计研制,遵循了安全可靠、简统化、系列化、经济性、节能环保等原则,在方便运用、环保、节能、降低全寿命周期成本、进一步提高安全冗余等方面加大了创新力度,具有创新性、安全性、智能化、人性化、经济性等特点。

座椅间距更大了,现在二等座椅统一调整为1020mm,一等座椅1160mm,这个就不用再忍受飞机狭窄的座椅空间了,人人享受头等舱待遇;第三个主要是统一了修程,这个主要是为运营部门降低成本。
For passengers, CRH350 means larger room, say goodbye to economy class of airplanes!
2nd class=1020mm
1st class=1160mm

They will be served as standard EMUs on trunk routes(>300KM/H)
I think u take intercity from Guangzhou to Shenzhen?
They will be occupied by intercity trains in the future.
Like CRH6

And this, windproof, sand-proof, cold-proof
The optimal train for lines in NE/NW China.

This but I prefer the colour of the other one.
Hey, u seem the only here like 土豪金!(vulgar landlord gold):p:

Let's not forget good ole' highways. :)

Beijing's 7th ring road to come full circle
2015-07-01

(ECNS) - Beijing is picking up the pace in construction of three highways, including its seventh ring road, to further integrate the road system between Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province by 2017.

In order to connect "broken dots" in the regional highway system, Beijing is building the highways at the same time, namely the Beijing-Taipei highway, the Miyun-Zhuozhou highway, and the Beijing-Qinhuangdao highway, according to Beijing Municipal Transport Commissioner Zhou Zhengyu.

The Miyun-Zhuozhou highway, part of Beijing's seventh ring road, will connect the capital with Hebei. The ring road will be connected with 10 expressways leading in all directions across China, acting as a major commodity transport passage.

The highways are expected to eliminate any "broken dots," which mostly appear between low-level provincial roads. Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei aim to improve overall competitiveness, realize coordinated development as a united bloc, and also address pressing issues like population pressure and air pollution.

The Beijing-Taipei highway is a partially completed Chinese expressway that, if fully constructed, would connect Beijing with Taiwan's Taipei city. Construction has already begun on the highway's section in Beijing, with the pace to pick up this year.

Once finished, the 208.3 kilometer-long Beijing-Qinhuangdao highway will further improve road connections with Northeast China.

Beijing to build railway station north of Chang'an Avenue
0
2015-07-01

(ECNS) -- Beijing plans to build a new train station north of Chang'an Avenue, a major thoroughfare, though its specific location is yet to be decided, according to the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC).

Initially, Xizhimen was considered an ideal location for Beijing North Station before it was taken off the board because the area is already crowded, said Li Guoyong from the commission.

Beijing's urban traffic is under pressure because its three major railway stations - Beijing Station, Beijing West Station, and Beijing South Station – are all located south of Chang'an Avenue.

Running through the heart of Beijing, the avenue is the road runs directly in front of Tian'anmen gate and to the north of Tian'anmen Square. It is associated with a number of important events in Chinese history.

China is also reorganizing a plan to construct inter-city railway systems between Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province. This initiative was approved by the State Council in 2004.

My professors are all happy about the new policy. This will make academic, business and tourist exchange much more convenient, at least from Taiwan to the Mainland.

China-designed train will replace older, foreign models

Tests of the first Chinese-standard bullet train began in Beijing on Tuesday as the country moves toward replacing all foreign-standard models with the domestically developed version, a senior official said.

"The new bullet train has been developed based on our own standards and technologies and is designed to be better adapted to China's environment and rail transport patterns," said He Huawu, an academic at the Chinese Academy of Engineering and chief engineer of China Railway Corp.

"We will gradually replace all in-service bullet trains with this new type. The move will greatly reduce our production, operational and maintenance costs."

The trains currently running on the country's high-speed rail network have been designed and built in accordance with various foreign standards.

This forces China Railway Corp to run a number of different support and maintenance programs for trains made to different specifications, keeping operating costs high. The lack of a Chinese-standard bullet train has hampered the nation's efforts to export its rail technology and products.

The former railway ministry, China Railway Corp's predecessor, launched a program to develop Chinese-standard bullet trains in 2012 with engineers from 30 institutes and companies.

They were told to design trains that would be suitable for the many different types of terrain found in China while maintaining the highest quality standards.

"The new train, with our full intellectual property rights, will facilitate our efforts to export China's railway products and technologies," said He. "Compared with other models, it is safer, more comfortable and economically competitive."

Two prototypes with an operational speed of 350 km/h and a top speed of 400 km/h will undergo a wide range of tests at the China Academy of Railway Sciences in the capital over the next two months.

The trains will then cover 600,000 kilometers in trial runs on the Taiyuan-Yuanping section of the Datong-Xi'an high-speed line, said He.

This is really good news for China.

My congratulations! :china:

We need to build 300-500 intercity rails over the next decade,each measuring 50-150km in length with average operating speed of 120-160kph。
