China Star
China Star (Simp. Chinese: 中华之星, a.k.a. DJJ2) is an indigenously designed experimental high speed train manufactured in China. It is an EMU train developed from the DJJ1 "Blue Arrow" high speed train by Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Works. Overview It consists of 2 power cars and 9 passenger cars. The prototype rolled out in 2002. The train set is designed for a top capacity of 270 km/h (168 mph), and a full load of 726 passengers. It achieved a top speed of 321 km/h (200 mph) on the newly built Qinshen Passenger Railway line during a test run in late 2002, setting a Chinese train speed record. However, due to signal system mismatches, and problems at electrical system and brake system, commercial services was delayed for the train. The train entered passenger service at Qinhuangdao-Shenyang PDL in 2005 but was limited to a top speed of 160 km/h (100 mph). Such problems still persists in services and was discontinued in 2006.

High-speed Rail
High-speed rail (HSR) is a type of rail system that runs significantly faster than traditional rail, using an integrated system of specialised rolling stock and dedicated tracks. While there is no single standard that applies worldwide, lines built to handle speeds above or upgraded lines in excess of are widely considered to be high-speed. The first high-speed rail system, the Tōkaidō Shinkansen, began operations in Japan in 1964 and was widely known as the bullet train. High-speed trains mostly operate on standard gauge tracks of continuously welded rail on grade-separated rights of way with large radii. However, certain regions with wider legacy railways, including Russia and Uzbekistan, have sought to develop a high speed railway network in Russian gauge. There are no narrow gauge high-speed trains; the fastest is the Cape gauge Spirit of Queensland at . Many countries have developed, or are currently building, high-speed rail infrastructure to connect major citie ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
