China's Next-Generation High-Speed Trains
China has successfully tested a prototype of its next-generation high-speed rail, the CR450, that can reach a top speed of 281mph. The train features breakthrough technologies, including safe high-speed operation and intelligent monitoring systems. The design includes a restaurant-style dining car, plush business-class section, and innovative features like adaptive lighting and touchless restrooms. China is also developing a magnetic levitation (maglev) train that can travel faster than a plane, using superconducting magnets in a low-vacuum pipe to eliminate friction.
