Bullet trains in China are designed to have 8 carriages in a group, with a bullet head at both ends. They could oparate on their own, but sometimes 2 groups are linked together head to head, to have a long train with 16 carriages. In this situation, you can walk though carriage 1 to 8, or 9 to 16, but not from carriage 8 to 9, since obviously there is no way to cross from one bullet head to another. You could see how it's linked at 9:50 That lady with a child at 10:52, she brough a ticket of "no seat". "No seat" tickets could be brough with the same price as the second class, but no seat assigned for you. So even if all seats are sold out, you could still buy a "no seat" ticket and get on the train. You may sit anywhere empty, as long as no one claims it, but once the owner comes, you have to get up and go, that was what she did.

I went on the High Speed Train from Beijing to Shanghai. Mate ... it was so comfortable, and I did the glass of water test ... and the surface of the water was still. I met about 20 Aussie Tourists and we found our way to the Cafeteria carriage. We drank the whole supply of Beer they had. And the Train Hostesses and us where just having fun and laughing most to the way. We took some photos of wearing the Train Hostesses hats. I wish we had High Speed Rails in Australia, travelling at 350kph. Maaaaatttttttteeeee ... that would be FANTASTIC. Come on Australia, get our Chinese mates over and get them to build the HSR networks for us, connecting all our cities together!!!!

It will take 30 years before USA may (or may not ... in the clause) give us their 2nd rate Subs once they've used them past their used by date. It gets even worse. Our Government is already paying USA over $1 Billion EVERY YEAR towards this useless purchase.

The train you're travelling on is a train set made up of two moving trainsets combined, which was created because the train was very heavily patronised, and in order to bring in more guests, the two trains were combined and run, resulting in the front and rear cars not being able to run through each other, as a locomotive was sandwiched in the middle, so you needed to cross over the locomotive from the station platform to reach the other train's car halfway through the journey.

It's not high-speed train, the high-speed train is only used for long distance, the speed is up to 350km/h, actually when you place the order for the ticket from APPs, you should has different types of train for your selection. the businessman usually prefer the high-speed train as the time management is their top priority. Students or farmers prefer the low-speed train with green color(hard seat, hard sleeper seat, soft sleeper seat) as time isn't the major concern.

These are CRH5 trains that are probably 10-15 years old. CRH1/2/3/5 are China's Gen 1 high speed trains, produced by joint ventures with rolling stock companies from Canada/Japan/Europe. Their operation speed is usually 200-250 km/h. They improved the technology with more domestic development, which led to the Gen 2 series CRH380A/B/C/D, with op speed of ~350 km/hr. The newest, mostly domestic-technology-backed, Gen3 trains CR400/300/200 operate at roughly 350/250/200 or 160 km/h. All the CRH models are named "HeXie" i.e. Harmony, whereas the CR models are called "FuXing" i.e Renaissance or Rejuvenation. CR stands for China Railway, but with the Fuxing designation, I would rather like the China Renaissance implication. Most of the train sets are 8-car or 16-car EMUs. Some, like the one you took, are coupled or doubled trainsets that join two 8-car EMUs into one 16-car train set and operate as a single unit.

@OTWD_yt Ай бұрын
What route does it do?
@gvhuang
@gvhuang Ай бұрын
Good question. Starting about 7 years ago, the Gen 1 trains have been gradually phases out, reaching or exceeding their design lifetime due to age and usage. It was reported that some early CRH2 trains have run 10 million kms before retiring. They will become fewer and farther between as time goes on. In principle, trains are allocated to railway routes according to train speed, track grade and route distances. Some routes require specially fitted trains for cold/high altitude/wind sand regions. In the early days when high speed rails were relatively rare (mid 2000s to early 2010s) there were high speed train routes on 'existing lines', i.e. fast trains on upgraded slow lines. That has been phased out too as specially built high speed rail network grew. Take the CRH5 for example. Most of them were purchased by china reailways regional group in Beijing and the northeast region. Many lines between Beijing and Hohhot/Tangshan/Shenyang are still served by CRH5s. Beijing to Badaling Great Wall is actually just a section of the Hohhot route. Some other short routes such as Guangzhou East to Shenzhen on older tracks also have CRH5s.

High Speed Train shall be travelling at 350km/hr, very quiet, stable and smooth 😅 I experience some high speed train did run with less stable as most. But i think this is normal and that is why need maintainenace. To be fair, like traditional low speed trains need rail and wheel maintenace after certain operating hours.

At least we're all learning that you cant move through the trains and we need to get to the cabin on time XDDD

​@@user-st5ft6zy5t The train they're taking is made by combind two 8-cabin trains together, so the cabin 1-8 and 9-16 are not connected. Sort like "kissing trains"

Bacause your train is a "long-set",it combine with 2 set train, 1set have 8 carriages. so you can not cross all carriage. i mean 1-8 is a seprate train, and 9-16 is another. so you can not cross 7 to 10 carriage.

enjoy the last best moments of the trains in China. Shenzhen has the most profitable subways of the whole China. But just yesterday, the China authority reported that Shenzhen train company has lost 250 millions USD last year they won't be able to maintain so many magnificent and over-engineered facilities soon.

Oops, sorry, but I don't think it was the first class carriage. The first class is quite different, much more legroom, more distance between each chair, which can also make a 360⁰ turn. Much fancier. With on-board service and train attendants. Yes..but try again , it's worth trying again you will see
