[The high speed flight train is coming! Able to achieve ultra-high-speed "flying near the ground" at a maximum speed of 1000km/h]

On May 24, the unveiling of Shanxi Provincial Laboratory of high speed flight rail cum groundbreaking ceremony for the Datong (Yanggao) test line project was held in Datong City, Shanxi Province.

The ultra-high-speed near-vacuum tube maglev transportation system (high-speed flight rail) uses near-vacuum tube to greatly reduce air resistance and noise, uses magnetic levitation to eliminate frictional resistance, and uses electromagnetic propulsion to provide full-range controllable acceleration and deceleration, achieving a maximum speed of 1000km/h "flying near the ground". Based on the advanced aerospace technology foundation it has mastered, China Aerospace Science and Industry Corp. (CASIC) officially deployed and actively promoted the high-speed flight rail project in 2017. Over the past few years, it has made solid progress in key technology research and has made phased progress. In the "Outline for Building a Powerful Transportation Country" issued by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council, the near-vacuum tube (tunnel) high-speed rail has been included in the technical research and development reserve category.

The high-speed flight rail project has received great attention and strong support from the Shanxi Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government. The "Proposal of the CPC Shanxi Provincial Committee on Formulating the Fourteenth Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development and Long-Term Goals for 2035" clearly stated that "Building a modern comprehensive transportation system; Speed up the construction of the maglev project in Shanxi's Transformation and Comprehensive Reform Demonstration Zone; Advance planning and layout of new infrastructure and strengthening the construction of scientific experiment facilities for ultra-high-speed near-vacuum magnetic levitation electromagnetic propulsion and other major technological infrastructure. "

The Datong (Yanggao) test line is an important part of the scientific experiment facility for ultra-high-speed near-vacuum magnetic levitation electromagnetic propulsion. The construction is undertaken by the Shanxi Provincial Laboratory of high speed flight train with jointly participation by the third academy of CASIC, North University of China, Shanxi Construction Investment Group and other domestic technical entities. It is the first full-scale test line for ultra-high-speed near-vacuum tube maglev transportation in China, which marks an important milestone for building a powerful nation in transportation technology.

China tests first high-temperature superconducting electric levitation system​

China successfully tested its first high-temperature superconducting electric levitation system in the northeastern city of Changchun on Friday, marking a technological breakthrough for the country in the domain. The operation fully verified core technologies including superconducting magnets, linear synchronous traction, induction power supply and low-temperature refrigeration, laying a solid foundation for promoting the superconducting electric maglev transportation system.

China set to test 1,000km/h ultra-high-speed-maglev train​

A research team has successfully completed China's first full-size superconducting test run for an ultra-high-speed magnetic levitation (maglev) train. Once completed, it will be capable of running at a whopping 1,000 kilometers per hour under ideal conditions.

The train combines maglev technology with low vacuum technology to achieve ultra-high-speed operation. More experiments will be conducted to reach the maximum speed and to verify the entire system's reliability. Previously, the research team conducted a test at 623km/h under non-vacuum conditions. The train is expected to be used for commuting between mega-city clusters in the future.

Collision experiment highlights safety of China's high-speed trains​

A collision experiment filmed by China Media Group highlights the safety of China's high-speed trains in east China's Shandong Province. In the experiment, a locomotive collides with a stationary one at a high speed but remains intact, showing the effectiveness of the energy-absorbing equipment developed by the China Railway Rolling Stock Corporation (CRRC). Established in 2017, the company's platform for railway collision experiments is one of the most advanced in the country. In 2019, the platform completed the world's highest-speed collision experiment of high-speed trains in which one train hit a stationary one at a speed of 76 kilometers per hour.

Experience in aerospace science helps tech development

China unveiled a scale model of its high-speed flight train that is expected to travel at 1,000 kilometers an hour by 2025, with Chinese railway experts saying the country's experience in aerospace science would help develop the train.

The model was on exhibit at the 2018 National Mass Innovation and Entrepreneurship Week in Chengdu, capital of Southwest China's Sichuan Province on Wednesday, Chengdu Business Daily reported.

The train, which the State-owned China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation Limited (CASIC) began developing in 2015 and dubbed "T-Flight," will use an integrated, light- and heat- proof cabin 29.2 meters long and three meters wide, the report said.

The train will float 100 millimeters above the ground due to a close-to-vacuum railway environment and magnetic levitation technology, Chengdu Business Daily quoted Wang Yan, an employee at CASIC's Magnetic Levitation and Electromagnetic Propulsion Department, as saying.

"The train will slowly accelerate to 1,000 kilometers an hour," Wang said, noting that passengers will be safe and feel comfortable.

The train is expected to be dispatched every 200 seconds, similar to a subway train, Chengdu Business Daily reported, citing a promotional video at the event.

Together with US-based Hyperloop Transportation Technologies and Hyperloop One, CASIC is among only three companies in the world that have announced the development of a transportation system with a designed speed faster than 1,000 kilometers an hour, Wang said.

"CASIC started behind its competitors, but its experience with aerospace science has given it a decent start in the development of the high-speed flight train," Wang said.

Sun Zhang, a railway expert and professor at Shanghai Tongji University, told the Global Times on Thursday that many technologies like electromagnetic propulsion used in the flight train are similar to aerospace technologies.

The exhibit of the flight train shows that China is keeping up with its US counterpart in the field, Sun said.

The train will reach the test speed of 1,000 kilometers an hour by 2023, and will be capable of carrying passengers at that speed by 2025, Chengdu Business Daily reported.

However, Sun said that despite the fast-paced schedule, the technology remains experimental and will not have a direct impact on people's lives anytime soon.

Southwest Jiaotong University in Chengdu is experimenting on a similar technology by developing a test platform for trains to achieve a speed of 1,500 kilometers an hour, Beijing-based newspaper Science and Technology Daily reported.

The speed is 1000 km/h.China has built a 2km low vacuum pipeline maglev train experimental line in Shanxi.It may be built between Hangzhou and Shanghai in the future.
