Up to 600 km/h without wheels: a new futuristic train presented in China

New revolutionary development by CCRC Changchun Railway Vehicles

According to glavcom.ua: The Chinese company CCRC Changchun Railway Vehicles has introduced a new prototype of a maglev train that can travel at speeds of up to 600 km/h. The engineers of the company emphasize that this model is extremely efficient, has enhanced safety, significant energy savings, and is completely environmentally friendly.

“The 12th World Conference on High-Speed Rail is currently taking place in Beijing, where a new high-speed maglev train capable of reaching speeds of up to 600 km/h was also presented,”

High-speed maglev trains use superconducting magnets to continuously operate with coils on the tracks. This technology has many advantages, such as high capacity on inclines, maneuverability, high speed, low noise levels, and high safety standards.

China's Experience and Future Projects

In China, a commercial maglev line connecting Shanghai with Pudong Airport is already successfully operational, where trains reach speeds of up to 430 km/h. China plans to start constructing new commercial lines for high-speed maglev trains within the next five years.

Recently, Ukrzaliznytsia announced the purchase of the first batch of five new generation passenger cars, which will improve comfort and transportation efficiency for passengers.

The new development by CCRC Changchun Railway Vehicles - a maglev train with a speed of up to 600 km/h - is being discussed. Furthermore, Ukraine is preparing to enhance passenger transportation comfort with new passenger cars.
