The Ministry of Railways reveals its intention to create a new line connecting cities during 2012. According to the ministry’s deputy chief engineer, Zhang Shuguang, the new technology will enable to run trains faster than the present bullet trains. “It is possible that we can start to manufacture 380 km/h trains in two years’ time, and put them into service on the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway,” he said, according to state media.

China’s two most important cities are separated by 1,318 kilometres or 819 miles. The new railway route will be the longest high-speed railway to be built in one go in the world. The Tianjin route uses technology imported from the German engineering giant Siemens. However Mr Zhang said China’s own engineers had “mastered” the technology sufficiently to upgrade the trains’ speed further.

Moreover, the journey time will be cut down to four to five hours from the current 10-12 hours. The new rail route would definitely be a competition to the present two hours flight time. These Chinese trains are designed keeping in mind to be running at top speed hence cutting down duration to a considerable level.
