A new train with its two core systems domestically developed made its debut before the opening of Baoji-Lanzhou high-speed rail line in Xi'an, Northwest China's Shaanxi province, on Thursday.

The CRH5G train, an electric multiple unit (EMU) train with a speed of 250 km an hour, is equipped with two core systems that have completely independent intellectual property rights, a network control system called "China Brain" and a train contraction system called "China Heart".
