The CRH2 Hexie is one of the high-speed train models in China. The CRH2 is based on the E2-1000 Series Shinkansen design from Japan with the license purchased from a consortium formed of Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Mitsubishi Electric, and Hitachi, and represents the second Shinkansen train model to be exported.
China Railway High-speed (CRH) is a high-speed rail service operated by China Railway.
The CRH3 Hexie is a version of the Siemens Velaro high-speed train used in China on the Beijing–Tianjin intercity railway line, Wuhan-Guangzhou Passenger Dedicated Line, Zhengzhou-Xi'an Passenger Dedicated Line and the Shanghai–Nanjing intercity railway. It is capable of service speed of 380 km/h (236 mph) as the very similar Velaro E used in Spain, but, similarly to the Sapsan, it is 300 mm (11.8 in) wider to take advantage of a more generous structure gauge and thus be able to fit in more seats in a 2+3 layout.
The HXD1 is an eight axle high power heavy freight twin unit locomotive of axle configuration Bo'Bo'+Bo'Bo'. Both the HXD1 and HXD2 double unit locomotives were designated DJ4, the HXD2 units being disambiguated DJ4-6000.
The CRH380A Hexie is a Chinese electric high-speed train that was developed by CSR Corporation Limited (CSR) and is currently manufactured by CRRC Qingdao Sifang. As a continuation of the CRH2-380 program it both replaces foreign (Japanese) technology in the CRH2 with Chinese developments and increases its top speed. The CRH380A is designed to operate at a cruise speed of 350 km/h (217 mph) and a maximum speed of 380 km/h (236 mph) in commercial service. The original 8-car train-set recorded a top speed of 416.6 km/h (258.9 mph) during a trial run. The longer 16-car train-set reached 486.1 km/h (302.0 mph).
The HXD2 is an electric locomotive and a series of related locomotive classes built by CRRC Datong Electric Locomotive and Alstom. The locomotives designs are based on the Alstom Prima electric locomotives, and are a product of a cooperation agreement signed between the two companies in 2004. All locomotives are intended for heavy freight work, including coal trains on the Datong Qinhuangdao line.
CRRC Datong Co. Ltd. is a Chinese railway locomotive manufacturing plant based in Datong, Shanxi, China, founded in 1953. The factory was a major producer of steam locomotives for the Chinese market up to 1988 when production switched to diesel powered locomotives. By the 1990s electric locomotives had begun to be produced, and became the major product of the works.
The "fastest" train commercial service can be defined alternatively by a train's top speed or average trip speed.
Changsha–Zhuzhou–Xiangtan intercity railway or Changzhutan intercity railway, is a higher-speed regional railway in Hunan, China. It connects the provincial capital Changsha with Zhuzhou and Xiangtan. The line was opened to traffic on 26 December 2016. A northwestern extension to Changsha West railway station opened on 26 December 2017. The maximum operating speed is expected to be up to 200 km/h (124 mph), travelling time between the three cities will be shortened to less than 30 minutes. The line uses China Railways CRH6F regional rail trains.
The CR200J Fuxing is a Chinese trainset consisting of a power car paired with unpowered passenger cars operated by China Railway. It is the slowest member of the Fuxing series, and only member of Fuxing series designed for existing railways under 200km/h rather than newer high-speed railways. The train was jointly designed and produced by six companies under CRRC.
The NZJ "Lushan", also registered as the NZJ1 are a class of diesel multiple unit (DMU) of China Railway. These sets were built by Tangshan Locomotive in a 2M2T layout of four cars with Cummins diesel engines and Siemens electrical equipment. Three sets were built in total between 1998 and 2000, with two operated by Nanchang Railway Bureau and one by Kunming Railway Bureau.
The DJF2"Xianfeng" electric multiple unit is a model operated formerly by China Railway with traction motors distributed throughout the unit. It was developed in 2001 as a key task of the science and technology targets of the Ninth Five-Year Plan. It was an innovative and advanced design being the first Chinese multiple unit train to achieve 200 km/h (124 mph) and achieving a top test speed of 292.8 km/h (181.9 mph) in tests, but had numerous flaws in the design that complicated operations.
The NDJ3 "Great Wall", previously labeled the "Harmony Great Wall" is the only higher-speed diesel multiple unit that is still operating in China. It was first designed to be used for passenger transport in the 2008 Olympics, and has become a mature technology platform with export orders to Nigeria despite initial flaws related to overheating of electrical cables in the power car.
The Dongfeng diesel multiple unit, also known as the Dongfeng motor coach, and NM1, was a DMU of Ministry of Railways, and was also the first diesel-hydraulic power car and double deck passenger car of China, built by Qingdao Sifang in 1958. The train consisted two motors and four double deck trailers, and was designed for short, commuter services. Each motor has two DV12A high speed diesel engines, and has the SF2006-1 hydraulic transmission. As the set had numerous flaws, it never entered mass production, but the valuable experience gained in the design and manufacturing process was later applied to the DFH1 and Red Star-class locomotive, while the passenger cars designs were later further developed for double deck trains such as the NZJ.
The TSD09 diesel multiple unit is a tilting train developed by Tangshan Locomotive in 2003 and fitted with Cummins diesel engines, Voith hydraulic transmission and Extel Systems Wedel tilting mechanisms. It was built for Sanmao Railway, but due to strategic reasons within the Ministry of Railways, the set never operated commercially and has been permanently stored at Tangshan Locomotive.
The KDZ1 is the first electrical multiple unit built in China. It is an experimental alternating current electrical multiple unit, developed by Changchun Railway Vehicles, CRRC Zhuzhou Institute and China Academy of Railway Sciences in 1978 and completed in 1988, though it never saw passenger service, with it being stored after it completed its initial tests.
The DJF1 "Zhongyuan Star" was an electric multiple unit of China Railway. It only operated in service for less than five years, before it was removed from service due to its various flaws and high maintenance costs. The train was initially built as a six car set, and subsequently lengthened to a fourteen car set. The two driving motors and the middle two motor cars have been preserved, with the other carriages being scrapped.
The KDZ1A "Chuncheng" was an early attempt at building an electric multiple unit in China with the participation of Changchun Railway Vehicles, Zhuzhou Institute and Kunming railway bureau. Development was completed in 1999 in time for the Kunming World Horticultural Exposition. As its predecessor, the KDZ1 never operated commercially, the KDZ1A became the first Chinese EMU to be in revenue service, although it was in service for only 10 years before being withdrawn.
The 01A01 and the 01A02 train are current rolling stocks used on the Line 1 of Shanghai Metro. They are built by Adtranz and Siemens Mobility, with first delivery in 1992. These cars are numbered 92011–92241, 93011-93481 and 94011-94241.
The 01A03, 01A04 and the 02A01 train are current rolling stocks used on the Line 1 and Line 2 of Shanghai Metro. They are built by Adtranz, Siemens Mobility and CSR Zhuzhou Locomotive, with modified by Shentong Metro between 2023 and 2024.
