High-speed trains to go even faster

Operator taps cutting-edge tech to improve passengers' experience

China's high-speed railway system is setting more ambitious goals for domestically developed Fuxing bullet trains, Lu Dongfu, head of the national railway operator, said on Thursday.

Coinciding with the 10th anniversary of the Beijing-Tianjin intercity high-speed railway on Aug 8, the Fuxing train will start running along the line at 350 kilometers per hour - up from the current 300 km/h, said Lu, general manager of China Railway Corp, at a high-speed railway forum in Beijing.
