On track for rejuvenation

Two new high-speed trains were put into operation on the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail line on Monday.

The two trains are a new model called Fuxing, or Rejuvenation, to which China holds the complete intellectual property rights.

Compared with the other high-speed trains in service in the country that have been designed and built with foreign technologies to different foreign standards, the new trains use core technologies developed in China and are built to a unified Chinese standard.
