half baked product.

should test with complete system . . . . structurally at least !!

I doubt they are testing the rakes just yet. Merely moving the rake around in the yard to free up some space perhaps.

Yeah, its an EMU. Most of our journalists are dumb and do very little research, especially when it comes to science and technology.

How does this compare with Chinese bullet trains?

It's a semi high speed train (higher speed train), not an HSR

Comparable to Chinese CRH6.
