China launches super-speed test train

[Korean]

But none of the above mentioned facts were directly related to the Wenzhou accident.

You don't understand, much of the viaducts and bridges that make up China's HSR tracks are constructed faulty due to corner cutting. These are tens of thousands of kilometers of time bombs waiting to blow up.

Chinese high speed train system for years safely and quickly moved thousands of millions of people,the world biggest human movement,that's the achievement the country accomplished.

where are the passengers?????? are they banned!

No, the ticket prices are very high by Chinese income standard so people can't afford to ride them.

Keys to any future super power is excellent transportation.

In China the passengers are allowed to the platform shortly before the tain leaves. So you can't see any passengers on platform unless the pic was takes shortly before the train leaves.

I have been to the Shanghai South Station, it's really cool design. The disigner is a good friend of mine.

It's the ticket price issue. Flying's cheaper than riding one of high speed trains.

Cheap for you Germans, very expensive for poor Chinese.

While the high ridership is encouraging, China’s high speed rail expansion has not been without a few hiccups. In early July a high speed rail line between Shanghai and Nanjing was shut down just two weeks after it began operation. High ticket prices and low ridership were faulted after two years of construction and hundreds of millions of dollars were spent.

S.Korea is too small ,doesnt need a railway,the bicycle is enough means of transport to fully get around in S.Korea,a train at full speed may send their passagners to the sea in no time.
