Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail will be raised to 350 kmh in September

Yesterday morning, China Railway Corporation arranged "revival" in the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail to carry out 350 km per hour experience operation. The railway sector is expected in September this year, the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail after the implementation of the new train map, the organization "revival number" by 350 km on-time formal on-line operation. By then, the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail full run time in about four and a half hours.

Yesterday，More than 300 people from relevant ministries, enterprises, some academicians, experts and relevant units of the railway industry participated in the experience operation. The next step, the railway sector will further improve the technical preparation, equipment fine tuning, personnel training, operational preparation and so on.

At present, the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail daily operation of more than 400 trains, the speed increased to 350 km, with the "revival number" off the assembly line and travel demand increases, the number of train speed will gradually increase. The initial Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail "revival number" for the number of 7 pairs.

For the Beijing-Shanghai railway speed, there are many people will have a lot of problems, more focused on fares and security issues. So the railway experts, Tongji University professor Sun Zhang answer these questions one by one.

The first question:Will the fare rise after high-speed rail is accelerated?　　

Sun Zhang said that speed is to raise prices. From a technical point of view, after the speed increase, the train running costs will increase, including management costs, parts wear and tear. More than half of the operating cost of high-speed rail is the cost of electricity, which is proportional to the cube of speed. In addition, the speed increase will speed up the wear of bearings and power supply facilities. Choose Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway in the lead in the implementation of "speed up", taking into account the fares of passengers adjustment, endurance.

The second question:we will still be concerned about the safety of this issue after speed up？

The answer is，Our high-speed rail design speed is 350 km / h, after the slowdown in the past few years, has accumulated a wealth of experience in security management, from the technology can be safe to protect. Now there are more than 2000 sensors on a high-speed train, each indicator will be reflected in real time. Every day before the whole line running, there is a free air run, its significance is to check the safety of the whole line, such as whether the track displacement, deviation, there is no expansion and so on.

The Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail to carry out 350 km per hour experience operation.

Through a comprehensive and systematic scientific demonstration and comprehensive assessment, agreed that the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail to meet the design speed of 350 km / h operating requirements. This time speed, already have the hardware technology and management experience in two terms. "Revival" in the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail to achieve speed of 350 km to run, marking the development of China's high-speed rail opened a new page to prove that China's high-speed rail is safe and reliable, with world-class technical level.
