The most amazing thing is that many of these workers were born in cities that were filled with old, creaky bicycles and smelly, smoky mopeds. Now, they're presiding over the world's fastest land transportation network, China's HSR and Metros. They must feel such pride in what they and their fellow countrymen have accomplished.
👍 Very impressive indeed, smooth ride, spacious quarters, clean, safe,excellent service, reasonably priced. What more can you ask for... Never underestimate China's prowess ❤️❤️❤️🇨🇳🇺🇸❤️❤️❤️
At the end of last year, I travelled from Shanghai to Guangzhou stoping by Hangzhou, Shangyei, Shangzhen without using single flight, the whole journey was pleasant. HSR opens so many possibilities and opportunities for everyone including our fellow overseas travelers
I just rode on ARMTRACK from Colorado to Missouri ARMTRACK is old filthy and out dated. i rode the chinese bullet train last year. Chinese rail is 50 years ahead of the the u.s. America does not have money for rebuilding our aging infrastructure. AMERICA HAS TRILLIONS FOR WARS AMD GLOBAL MILITARISM.
The US focus for spending money is, as you said, wars. I am sure that with the money spent in keeping Navy task forces roaming around the 7 oceans and keeping all these military bases all over the world, they could have a respectable high speed train network. The problem is that infrastructure is not the US Gov main focus.
I had a ride on Beijing-Tianjin bullet train in 2008, the first high-speed railway section in mainland China. Fifteen years on, the network has already grown to be the largest in the world, far larger than any other country. Really amazing.
If we in Australia weren't an American colony with no sovereignty we'd have high speed rail with Chinas help but unfortunately not happening any time soon!!
380 billion wasted on 5 old US nuclear subs to protect our sea trade routes from China though!! (Despite fact that China is biggest trade partner by far.. meaning they would have to attack their own cargo ships lol)
As a Chinese railfan living in the UK, could I just point out that this is not an ultra-HST? The CR400 series are only designed to operate at a max speed of 350 kph (217 mph). There is, though, an ultra-HST (i.e. CR450 series) under testing and expected to be 400 kph (249 mph) max so do keep an eye on those future trains too. But indeed these business compartments are very comfortable to ride on - I'm truly envious as we don't have these at all here in the UK!!! The limitation possibly arises from the narrow loading gauge in the UK - a problem which will however be avoided on the new-built HS2. In due course, trains running *only* on high speed lines will benefit from a wider loading gauge, out of which I'm looking forward to a more premium seating class!
No the HS2 won't avoid the loading gauge problem, the Hitachi HST will still go on some conventional rail routes, so the cabin width is going to be 2.8 meters maximum.
@@fdc4810 Oh really?! I think (according to Wikipedia) the loading gauge of the new railway itself is supposed to be wider so that trains operating *exclusively* on the HS2 itself (i.e. London Euston ←→ Birmingham Curzon Street) can be wider; while trains running beyond the HS2 will be smaller in order to fit in conventional railways...? Do please point out again if I'm wrong.
Thanks for sharing, 450 km/hr is faster than the Shanghai maglev train of 430 km/hr from the airport to Pudong Station. Agree, besides having to check in 2 hours before flight time, by plane, we often experience flight delays, especially Winter season. You did not tell us the time of the journey.
Mr. Lee, thanks for showing us this HSR line in China. Very nice. The train station is so clean and modern. Very interesting. I wonder when will we have something like this in the US
You forgot to mention the glass in the windows. To prevent travel sickness the glass magically makes the scenery pass by serenely. The first HST created a nausea feeling, magic glass remedy this.
It would be fun and interesting if you did a race from door to door on a train, plane and car. I think the train journey would win on stress free and environmental.
China business class bullet train are so impressive, the seats are so comfortable , quite luxury and the best thing are specific lounges with free refreshments . A like from Singapore 👍
I just came back from a trip to Japan. My friends and I took the Nozomi Shinkansen from Tokyo to Osaka. Last year, I took the Fuxing Hao Gaotie from HK to GZ, GZ to SH and then SH back to HK. Comparing the Gaotie and Shinkansen, cheapest class vs cheapest class, as a passenger, I find there are pluses and minuses to each. In terms of sound, I like how the Shinkansen has that extra door front and back leading to where the passengers sit so that adds a bit of quietness. While that helps with the quietness, I find the ride noise was a lot louder than the Gaotie and some parts of the journey has these tight curves and my ears were popping as if i am on an airplane that's landing. I guess since the Gaotie is a lot newer, the government was able to smoothen out the tracks to make it flat which leads to less curves and less road noise. I know the Gaotie is big on having the feature of ordering food on board or using the app to picked up on the next stop. I never tried it but when I did want to try it, the app didn't load up the restaurant list. On the Shinkansen, there was no such feature and on my train, there was no cart with food and drink for sale. I don't know if this is consistent with all Shinkansen rides but I wouldn't be surprised if Japanese prefer quietness and less people pushing carts and up and down. Now that I am back home, I am gonna miss these trains.
I think they stopped the food cart service (at least on the Tokaido shinkansen) last year. It was already gone by last October, at least. I think the other lines are still doing it.
With the 12306 app was also not possible to order food on the 高铁, but with Scanning the QR Code with Wechat I could order food, but not on every track.
Meh, you can not imagine 😂😂Remember, China has 1.4 billion people, and 20 years ago traveling on those old green trains is the most common way traveling around China. You are not just sitting for 17 hrs, you are jammed in the car like a satin fish in a can.the bench is supposed to seat 3 ppl yet usually 4 ppl would try to share the bench, and one person lying underneath, the ally way, the connection, even the bathrooms are crowded with people standing, or sitting on a little stool they bring along. Yeah kind of like the Indian trains but less crazy because we don’t hang outside the train. 😂😂😂 Now we put all that behind, and even just for this one small point, we are grateful to the CPC❤
What an impressive train journey, "ive got my slippers on and my legs are stretched out" you don't hear that on many trains. Traveling along at incredible speeds yet the train hardly vibrates and is close to silent, that is better than flying. Hey Lee, even although you were flying along in style, were you thinking about your luxury car and comparing the comfort? I would have been, i hope you take us with you on your next car journey.
Another thing that assume is a plus is that the train station you arrive at is probably much closer to the City Center than most big city airports. Am I right ?
Wow, the business class in the Chinese high speed train looks much better than in an aircraft. Train journeys by HST are great alternative than air travel. China is rapidly building her super railways network which will definitely surpass the usa or Europeans by far. China’s next generation high speed trains will travel almost as fast as aircrafts without the hassle and time delays at the airport.
Hello Lee, another very interesting video. The public services in China, such as public transport, aren't intended to make a profit, they're intended to provide a service for the people. Britain does have a high speed railway line, HS1 between London and the Channel Tunnel, with a maximum speed of 300 kph. Brightline Florida in the USA claims to be high speed but doesn't really qualify. It uses diesel locomotives, and most of the route has level crossings (at grade crossings in US terminology).
2 ideas for future videos-1) How do suppliers get all their products to the huge supermarkets in underground shopping malls? 2) What are they growing in all those miles and miles of poly tunnels you can see from the fast trains?
You almost make me want to dash to Jakarta’s Halim HSR station and board such a train 😂. Btw.. if possible, I wish to see you and your wife revisit Meizhou with its HSR service rather than drive to get there. I’m rather curious to see how HSR performs in such a rural location 😊.
I heard there will soon be freshly cooked meal served for the business class soon, freshly roasted peking ducks, shark fin soup with crab tat, braised whole abalone ....stay tuned
We have this vast freeway system in the US, doesn’t take a penny in revenue but no one questions its value A few cities have commuter trains, Amtrak is a slow, quaint luxury experience
High speed train was invented first in Japan, and then developed in 4 countries, that is, Japan, Germany, France and Canada. China bought the technology together with know-how first from Japan and then from all of the four countries.
Sorry dude. They now got Chinese system. In terms of technologies, China already leapfrog all of them 😂. They can build all kinds of high speed train eg can withstand extreme cold temperature, can withstand sand problem etc. Those countries cannot do this. China even have an unmanned high speed train.😅
China don't have tracks supporting 400km/h. It's waste of money for that. Beijing seems to have capacity problems in its rail system, it is much more urgent to expand the capacity rather than speeding up. More stations, more tracks, more new lines to be built.
Your concern is exactly valid. The trains in this video are only designed to go up to 350 kph. The CR450 are not yet in service - and I doubt if they'll be in service in the near future because even the fastest railways in China are only designed to be 350kph max. Or else, technically they could enter service but with a reduced speed. I'm not sure if upgrades to existing HSRs can accommodate higher speeds; at least I don't think China is interested in tilting trains.
Even though impressive but HSR train timings are still about twice that of flight times minus the time it takes to go through boarding and deboarding process at the airports. In India we are required to reach at least two hours prior to the flight time. But considering the fact that these trains are zero emissions free so they are lot cleaner than airplane travel and for most people reaching their destinations one or two hours early is not always necessary so these trains make lot more sense and also as technology improves I guess HSR trains will run at even higher speeds in the future.
Never dreamed of a train journey can be so comfortable. Travel in style.
And short. So it is comparable to an airline.
@user-vp1vl6yp9t
It's better than an airline. You could actually experience the countryside up close, whereas , if you're up in the air, you can't...

So so true! Forever war ;(
Wake up America
Well said.
So true same as UK, as I'm British-Chinese. Have money to supported wars on Ukraine
Israel and Red Sea, no money for national problems.
The deep state in America have deep pockets.

The problem is that infrastructure is not the US Gov main focus.
Jaw dropping. Thanks Barrett for sharing your amazing high speed train journey.

@5:18 .... 450 km/h???? that would be incredible. California HSR should make this their speed target. This is great news for China.
Can you do some factory visit and do a QC inspection??
the seating uses English letters?
So do vehicle number plates (licence plates) in China. Likewise exits in Chinese metro stations are labelled with western letters.
