Fastest Trains In China
The "fastest" train commercial service can be defined alternatively by a train's top speed or average trip speed. * The fastest train service measured by peak operational speed is the Shanghai maglev train which can reach . Due to the limited length of the Shanghai Maglev track (30 km)(18.6 mi), the maglev train's average trip speed is only . * The fastest train service measured by average trip speed from 2009 until 2011 was on the Wuhan–Guangzhou high-speed railway, where from December 2009 until July 1, 2011, the CRH3/CRH2 coupled-train sets averaged on the route from Wuhan to Guangzhou North. However, on July 1, 2011 in order to save energy and reduce operating costs, the maximum speed of Chinese high-speed trains was reduced to 300 km/h, and the average speed of the fastest trains on the Wuhan-Guangzhou High-Speed Railway was reduced to . * After the speed reduction in 2011 the fastest services are found running between Shijiazhuang and Zhengzhou East wher ...
