China's High-Speed Rail Miracle
Join us on an exciting race from Chongqing to Guangzhou, where we put China's high-speed bullet train to the test against air travel! 🚄✈️ In this video, Alex Reporterfy Media compares the journey times, comfort, convenience, and overall experience of taking the bullet train versus flying.
China has established the world's most extensive high-speed railway network in just two decades.
Since the first line launched in 2008, the network has grown to roughly 25,000 miles, more than double the combined length of the rest of the world's high-speed railways and long enough to circle the Earth.
A passenger train is considered high-speed if it travels at least 124 mph on upgraded tracks or 155 mph on new tracks. More than 20 countries currently have high-speed rail networks, mainly European and East Asian states but also Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Uzbekistan.
China's government has focused on creating a dense and connected network. The high-speed rail now links major cities, reduces travel times and boosting connectivity between regions, covering 93 percent of cities with populations over a half-million as of the end of 2021.
China's ambitions continue, with plans to extend the high-speed rail network to 31,000 miles by 2025 and to 43,495 miles by 2035.
The ability of China's authoritarian government to quickly marshal vast resources for major projects is an "institutional advantage," according to the embassy.
Initially, China relied on technology transfer agreements with foreign companies such as Alstom, Siemens and Kawasaki Heavy Industries. Over time, China developed significant domestic expertise and innovation, becoming a leader in high-speed rail technology.
Starting from the heart of Chongqing and ending in the bustling city of Guangzhou, this race will determine which mode of transport truly reigns supreme in China.
