Starting July of this year, the Chinese Railways conducted a series of tests on the "Fuxing" EMU, including real-vehicle inspections, feasibility studies, and operational safety assessments, running at speeds of up to 350 km/h on the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail line. The results confirmed that operating at 350 km/h met all operational requirements.
Recently, China Railways announced that beginning September 21st, they will run seven pairs of "Fuxing" EMUs at a top speed of 350 kilometers per hour on the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail line. Detailed timetables have also been released for these trains and their accompanying services. This move marks China as the country with the fastest commercially-operated high-speed rail system in the world.
In the announcement, China Railways highlighted that the "Fuxing" EMU is a domestically-developed train running at a maximum speed of 350 km/h. It incorporates cutting-edge technology, ensuring both technical safety and reliability, as well as passenger comfort.
During an interview with Guangming Daily, He Huawu, the special technical consultant general manager of the China Railway General Administration and an academician, noted that increasing the speed of high-speed rail requires careful consideration and planning. While managing this new challenge, economic and social benefits must be weighed. For instance, raising the speed from 300 km/h to 350 km/h could lead to a 20%-30% increase in energy consumption.
China currently operates approximately 22,000 kilometers of high-speed rail lines, with about one-third of those tracks designed and built to accommodate speeds of 350 km/h. The acceleration of the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail has sparked speculation about whether this signals a nationwide increase in speed limits. He Huawu clarified that while 350 km/h is the highest standard among China's high-speed rail systems, not all lines are designed for this speed. The choice of speed depends on specific conditions and needs.
