I can criticize European trains all day.....but we should not forget at the core level China learnt high speed rail from Europe and Japan.
They've truly surpassed the world.
Just look at the quality of infrastructure and compare them to what is the status of the same in Germany.
Look at Railway stations like Nanjing station and compare it to Frankfurt am Main hauptbahnhof
The difference is monumental
The world needs to take note and acknowledge China's progress
The PRC has more space to build in the countryside and if a town needs to be removed in order to build a high speed line it's a lot easier to do so! Such is progress. : )
Amen 🙌🏻
PRC also is a dictatorship and can do as and when it wills. Moreover, everyday Fill own no owndom technically and have their owndom on lease. The PRC regularly does as it wills where the everyday Burgher is concerned. Yes, it is come leaps and bounds but at what cost and intellectual property Theft at the same time!
Technology is learnt and transferred and improved in the entire human history and this is just normal. Guess from who did Japanese learn to make cars and heavy machineries. And from who did Americans learn to make looming machines (although it’s a bad example as Americans did STEAL the technology from the Brits, and that guy is still considered a national hero till this day.). It happens all the time.
The technology that China acquired was legitimately transferred , as part of the expensive deal that Chinese has paid for. Otherwise you would have heard a major dispute on this in WTO already. This deal was signed after China joined the WTO for a few years, and keeping your reputation and your end of the deals is very important because it keeps the expenses of such future deals low and such future negotiations easy. Reputation is a worthy long term investment, especially for a country. As a country cant scam you once and just disappear.
Again, Nobody would reinvent 4 wheels just to design their own cars. Simple as that. Nothing special to be particularly “remembered “ here. This happens all the time and everywhere.
@@jinniwind
very sensible ,, and clear note ,
The last high speed trip I did was Qingdao to Beijing. I can assure you that even economy is luxurious when compared to train travel in China in the 1980's. xx
Hard sleeper in the 1980s was an amazing experience. 40 hours was my longest.
On my 2018 tour of China, I was on the Chongqing to Xian line, I was thinking to myself what a wonderful way to travel. A few months later, they came out with the Fuxing which is the latest version of the high speed train and can cruise speed around 350 kilometer an hour.
The 5000-year journeys of historic sophistication definitely never lie , never .
This is arguably the best train in the world glad you travelled on thee.❤😊
Amen brother 🙏🏻

The US is accepting the challenge of China's high speed trains with a system of high speed buses.
😂😂😂
I can't imagine traveling in China without hi-speed trains. When my late wife and I traveled in Brazil in 1986, we had to fly between all the cities. But Brazil has planned its first express train between Rio and Sao Paulo altho construction hasn't started yet. Maybe one day you'll do South America.
That's my plan for 2024!
It has this line planned for so long that it is a meme for lot of Brazilians
which will be never!!
有空欢迎来中国玩
they live by procrastination theory. wait for another 28 years.
China has stopped production of the 380A for a while already. The current operational series is the 400 series, and the 450 series is in test run now.
As mentioned in the video
I take those trains every week,and I can't live without them. By the way,awwsome videos!!😀
Cool, thanks! I love them too 🤩
CRH380A has stopped producing new cars, and now the factory only produces the CR400 series.
Now they produce flipflops
Good
@@fp3359nope their better
Indonesia high speed train is using the CR400 series which running at standard 350 km/hour
5:25 you can see the number is CRH380AL-2541, It happens to be the one mentioned below that set a record speed of 486km/h ten years ago.😄very lucky
Wow lucky me 🍀😁
Happy to see him having CRH380AL-2541 that reached 486kmh.
It's soo fascinating 😊 love to visit China
You should!
The CRH380A is actually semi-self designed by China but based on technology from mainly Japan and Germany (there for the 380B we know its based on the ICE3 from Germany but the 380A is really more like a combination)... Also, it alongside with the 380B is still in reality the best performing train (in terms of specs) running in China. However the Chinese government limited most of these older CRH trains to 310 Km/h in order to promote the self-designed and built Fuxing series (they are still really good but their max capability would be below the CRH380s a bit, both the Fuxing and the CRH380 can easily and safely run at 350km/h). I would hope that they can build or redirect more CRH380A/Bs in the future and add them on to share tracks with Fuxing series at 350 Km/h, they are definitely capable, they have done before, and this would also ease the pressure at peak seasons without spending too much extra cost.
The main reason why all CRH380 series Harmony trains' speed were reduced to 300km/h was because of a major train collision in Wenzhou back in around mid-2011. That train accident involved a CRH1 and a CRH2 trains, both with operating speed of up to 250km/h but down to max 200km/h after that accident, which collided on a viaduct in Wenzhou and killed around 40 people. The train accident was confirmed to have been caused by signal failure. Since that time the government decided to restrict the operating speed of all CRH trains, known as Harmony trains, in order to improve safety and efficiency of the train until further notice. CRH380 series trains, while never involved in any major accidents, still have to lower their top speeds from 350km/h to 300km/h for the same reason. Nevertheless these high-speed trains are so good both inside and outside.
problem is that CRH380A is not standalized and it is difficult to do double 8-carbin train to do 16 cabins with other models, which is Fuxing is doing
你的说法是错误的。和谐号降速的主要原因是它的技术并不能支撑长时间以350公里的速度行驶，成本高消耗大，安全性也不足。这些问题到复兴号才解决，复兴号的性能优于所有和谐号列车。
@@stefanosong9314 There is a 16-car version known as CRH380AL and CRH380BL so they can make long trains.
@@davidwong6682 I know they have BL and AL but the Fuxin series can do two 8 cabins no matter if they are same type
Congrats on the 100k milestone and a happy new year!
Happy new year to you too 🎉
The best Chinese HSR train is CR400BF-BZ which you incidentally took in the business class between Shanghai and Nanjing, so this one isn't the best, and you should know that ;)
Anywwy, Chinese HSR system is indeed mind-boggling and not even remotely comparable to anything else out there. Not just because the network is huge but also because of the service level it provides. Can't wait to ride those trains again.
I don't agree tbh, this train is built much better, maybe because of it's heritage?
@@NonstopEurotrip It isn't built "much better". More or less the same as any other CRH/CR train in terms of build quality. It's a bit older though than the one you took previously.
@@NonstopEurotrip The best train in China now is the Fuxing series, while the CRH380 series is quite old
the CRH series have a higher running cost and maintenance cost compared to the Fuxing series. that's why we say the Fuxing series is better(at least in operator‘s view). from passasenger's view it varies according to personal preference🥴@@NonstopEurotrip
Happy new year nonstop Eurotrip thank you for all the amazing videos you uploaded this year
Same to you! And thank you 😊
@@NonstopEurotrip please can you review the new swr class 701 train please
200&250km/h EMU (Tendering in 2004)
CRH1A/B/E--BST Company (Qingdao Bombardier-Sifang, a joint venture between CSR Sifang (Qingdao) and Canadian Bombardier Corporation, established before China began to develop high-speed railways)
CRH2A/B/E--Kawasaki Heavy Industries of Japan (joint venture with CSR Sifang)
CRH5A--France Alstom (joint venture with CNR Changchun Bus)
300 (350) km/h EMU (Tendering in 2005)
CRH2C--Kawasaki Heavy Industries of Japan (joint venture with CSR Sifang)
CRH3C--Siemens of Germany (joint venture with CNR Tangshan)
These vehicles basically belong to foreign technology. From the initial introduction of complete vehicles to the introduction of parts and components for domestic assembly, and then to the transfer of production technology for domestic manufacturing, domestic independent production has now been achieved.
Independently developed 350 (380) km/h high-speed EMU
CRH380A/AL--CSR Sifang (based on CRH2 technology, but it is independent innovation, and China already has international patents)
CRH380B/BL--CNR Tangshan, CNR Changke (based on CRH3C technology)
CRH380CL--CNR Changke (based on CRH3C technology)
CRH6A/S/F - CSR Sifang, CSR Puzhen plus Xinhui base (to some extent a derivative of CRH2, intercity EMU)
As mentioned in the video
"From the initial introduction of complete vehicles to the introduction of parts and components for domestic assembly, and then to the transfer of production technology for domestic manufacturing, "
From what I know, this statement is incorrect.
So call technology transfer is the technology to putting thing together. not the technology to make the each component parts
When negotiating about technology transfer, for one example, the Chinese side asking the technology to make the wheels, the 西門子 side said we 西門子 don't produce the wheels, 西門子 bought wheels form other German company. A relatively high position guy from Chinese Rail Ministry said it in a HRA documentary. At that time, Chinese Company only can produce wheels for run on less than 200 KM/H, and still working on the > 250 KM/H version. For the wheels, China have to buy it from Germany.
Excelent video. Happy new year for everybody from Spain
Same to you 😁
Really enjoyed the video , best wishes for the new year 😊.
Thank you! You too!
Muchas gracias por sus videos!
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
happy new year!🎉 had to laugh at the announcement approaching ChangXing station: "...please get out..having your belongings with you..." #hilarious another great video and look forward to more in the new year!
Happy new year!! Yeah the announcements are sometimes quite funny or passive aggressive lol 😂
Back in 2004, when the Ministry of Railways of China(CR) first introduce the high-speed rolling stocks, they listed 4 ground terms in the negotiation with Bombardier, Kawasaki, Siemens and Alstom:
1. You must cooperate with Chinese local rolling stock manufacturer. CR won't buy trains directly from foreign manufacturers.
2. Technology transfer is a must, or CR will not introduce your rolling stock.
3. Assemble the trains in China by Chinese engineers. Foreign engineers should teach Chinese engineers.
4. CR will not pay bills until the Chinese engineers learned all the technology. CR will exam the engineers constantly.
All four terms are in the contract with Bombardier, Kawasaki, Siemens and Alstom. They agreed all the terms eventually, since they didn't want to lose the Chinese market. That's why China have the technologies in the first place. It's not stealing. It's a part of the contract.
I mean, that's one interpretation...
@@NonstopEurotrip Technology transfer per contract's T&Cs - It is what it is ! The Japs, Germans & French at the time UNDERESTIMATED the Chinese' ability & capacity to learn, absorb & apply what tech was transferred to them. Copying the Chinese strategy, that's what India is demanding from Japan for the current under-construction India's 1st HSR line. Let's see how successful is India going to be in developing their own HSR system post-construction and how much tech is Japan going to transfer given their experience with China.
The Wassenaar Arrangement banned the transfer of EMU technology with speeds higher than 250 km/h to China. It has nothing to do with foreign manufacturers after the CRH350 series and onwards.

Amazing. so nice
28 platforms is wild, Can't imagine if a child gets lost in there
The CCTV would soon find them...
Last November I was in ChongQing / Xi’an / HuaShan , one HSR I took maxed @ 309 km/h
The train you took on filming day, CRH380AL-2541, is the exact EMU that made the 486km/h record.
After the homegrown Fuxing (CR400) series went into service, the CRH380 series - which relied mostly on modifying transferred tech - were limited to 310 km/h max, even on 350 km/h rated lines like Shanghai-Beijing HSR, which is quite a pity imo.
However, many rail fans hate "wall-facing seats" on many CRH and CR models, but 380A has perfect seat-window alignment (similar to E2 Shinkansen)
Why would you call a stolen and copied technology a "homegrown"?
@@My-Opinion-Doesnt-Matter So, almost all Japanese culture and tech came from China. Paper, gunpowder, silk, food, written language, porcelain, kites, guns. Were these stolen too? The Europeans got tech from China early on too. Are you going to always say it's stolen tech? YOU KNOW THAT CHINA HAS SURPASSED YOU WHITE'S, RIGHT?
Technology from Bombardier (CRH1), Kawasaki (CRH2), Siemens (CRH3) and Alstom (CRH5, CRH380D) were all legally transferred to China, I suggest looking up the definition of stealing vs. technology transfer. I was merely referring to the author's word choice in his other video@@My-Opinion-Doesnt-Matter
Wow amazing luck 🤞🏻
@@My-Opinion-Doesnt-Matter coz technology is copied everywhere. look at Boeing consisting of parts from 50 countries. look at USA who has a history of stealing European Tech

Nice !

I still think 380b is better than 380a because of the air tightness of the 380a is just not as good so my ear suffers from the pressure change happens when passing through tunnels on high speed. Which happens quite frequently on 郑西客专. It’s better than their predecessor, the CRH2 family (I rode them when they were brand new back in early 2010s) but definitely not as good as 380b and the newer fuxing EMUs.
Good point!
Please make a video on Beijing to Shanghai route.
Happy new year brother and congratulations for your achievements kindly also do face reveal.

I traveled by TGV at over 300 km/h over 30 years ago !!
So did I, and?
Yes, France is doing very well, and China, as a former backward country, has also developed very well. This is a good thing, I don't understand why you have to fight against everything.
How you stated facts about the train technology without endorsing either side was amazing. Hoping you could do a video of a Chinese high-speed train in which they have used German technology as well
Thanks Luke, I appreciate that ☺️

CRH380A series is an elite EMU At least in early 2010s that's absolutely true.
Imagine if the ferricrossca 1000 was here they will go so fast and go at 350 kmph and will look amazing at speeds

This model is produced by Bombardier in China and is called crh380d.
But the Zefiro's first commercial operation is in China tho? Look up CRH1E CRH380D and CRH1E-NG
Imagine if people learn to write km/h correctly.

@@My-Opinion-Doesnt-Matter
The title claim is incorrect. China BOUGHT bullet train technologies from Germany, Japan and Canada and built them in China. In the process, China gradually replaced imported parts with domestic made parts, and finally redesigned China's own bullet train, which are Hexie, or Harmony, Fuxin, or Renaissance. The newest China Fuxing Train has no strings attached with any one of the three countries and that is why China can export them trains to the world.
This is my question precisely. Did China buy the technology or bought the trains and reverse engineered them? No judgement either way!
It's debatable 🙃
First of all, the basic sciences are already out there and published. !
And, they were already proven by prior German, British or American experimentations that they worked.
So, what’s so difficult to just copy based on proven science and come out with a better version even without knowing the original designs?
In fact, not seeing the original should be an advantage. They’re not biased to a specific design, and serendipity is usually how breakthrough in science is discovered . . . .especially when you have all the right parts available for assembly.
Yes, the Japanese and the Europeans had the early start on high speed rail, but within ten years, China was able to develop their own indigenous version and at the same time built 40,000 kilometers of these HSR trains.
This was through copying and implementation that they learned and progressed.
The Chinese have a long history of education. It is this discipline that makes copying so easy.
@@MohammedKumar-si4ec thats not how things work.
@@NonstopEurotrip Yes, but is the title claim still incorrect?
Nicely diplomatic update... 😉
Awesome video! I recommend you to try Beijing-Shanghai route, this is the main route for Beijing-Shanghai High-Speed railway. It has fewer stops on the way and it almost only stop at provincial capital. I found this thing because I went to Beijing many times, and even the begin and stop are same, it will take different time for each trip. If you can try main route, I believe it will be much better!
What about coming to Canada to ride Via Rail?
Maybe when I'm richer 😆
I'm glad that the Indonesian HSR which is using the Chinese HSR system isn't that strict compared to China itself
Chinese don't want any trouble maker.
I’ve been to nanjing station. It’s absolutely massive and quite chaotic!
It sure is!!
may I ask where did you get the info about this train is based on some Japanese train and some kind of technology transfer....I did some research online, couldnt find anything to support your claim except some debates about the design was a "copy" of the E2. what about all the other trains in China, are they all Japanese trains too.
Because it's exactly the same 👀
@@NonstopEurotrip so it's just your speculation . They actually look very different., google the pictures again if you would.
@@Glory-to-God. Let's just agree to disagree. I've been on both and they are the same.
hexie series is limited to 310kph these years，only fuxin series is allowed to 350kph😂

honestly the thing i dont like about chinese trains is the airport-esc vibe, like HSRs main point is to skip the time of airport checks
Not really, and it takes 5 mins max

Thank you for an extremely interesting trip! I have one point of objection. Is it really necessary to make Rail Travel like Air travel. However, seeing the security checks explains why Chinese High Speed Rail Stations have separate departure and arrival areas, just like Airports! One other comment. i notice that the train was running on the LEFT hand-track of a pair of tracks. Is that the norm in China?
Yes, such checks are necessary in China because many millions of people are forbidden from travelling by high-speed train or flights and need to be kept out of the station -- that's why there's no ticket office either, but the security check helps ensure no-one is travelling on someone else's ticket.
yes all trains run on left in China
Debtors who have been tried by the courts according to Chinese law cannot fly, take high-speed rail, or stay in five-star hotels.

China makes the rules!
The Chinese high-speed train was not developed based on Japanese Xin Gan Xian, it was a combined tech. of highspeed tech from 4 countries, France, German, Japanese and Canadian; now the newer modes are developed with Chinese own tech, that is why they were much faster than Japanese Xin Gan Xian, going 350KM/H. Chinese HST is now head-to-head with Japanese on the development of Train going for 600KM/H
Let's go, faster trains 😁
The car you are riding is the one that ran to 486.1km.
Prolonged travel at high speed and almost 100% on time performance. Europe can only dream! I hope DB in particular is able to raise some money for track upgradation as right now their "high speed" ICE's aren't much faster than normal trains running at 160kph and below. A 500km trip takes 5hrs on a normal train (EC) and 4hrs on the ICE. That is a lot of wasted potential.
Yes, it's certainly a great system!
An important and critical success factor for the high speed rail is dedicated rail tracks for high speed use only. In Germany, Netherlands and Belgium high speed rolling stock often have to share tracks with slower rolling stock which undermines the potential of high speed rail. The track sharing is for many reasons which is great to see that China and Japan provided a network for high speed only.
China's HSR the fastest and smoothest with top class train stations and ticketing/check-in systems.
It could be argued 🙂

In China, that's consider a town.
The original technology is from Japan and later adapted to a Chinese variant.
As mentioned in the video
Long Live China !

China now has the best high-speed train technology and products, and even coins can be erected on them when the operating speed of their trains reaches up to 350km/h. Unbelievable
Crazy right!!!
I'm going there again next year to try the CR400AF, a friend invited me over for some music business and I'm excited
Yeaaah China has its tofu dreg projects here n there and all the bad stuff, but if you look at it, most countries are basically the same...not much different, so why the hell not go at least a few times lol
豆腐是中国的， 不是你这些外国人能用的词
Tofu is Chinese, not a word you foreigner can use
中国到处都是豆腐渣工程，您还来中国吗？您怎么这么不要脸呢？
臭不要脸的狗东西，不要来中国！！！
Have fun!
The best Chinese HSR train is CR400 or Fuxing series.
Indonesia's Jakarta-Bandung HSR using CR400AF.
You're confusing 'best' with 'newest'
I think the faster and more stable one is the best.
@@JandonGames In which case, this is better 😋
曾经是中国最好的高速动车组之一，但在CR400系列出世后自然就是后者了，不过我个人还是比较喜欢她的。
Me too 😄
These East Asian trains are really seductive and enchanting......😍🤤
Nice coverage by my friend.
I wonder when the Mumbai Ahmedabad High Speed Rail Corridor will get open......😔
Thanks so much! I can't wait to try high-speed rail in India!
@@NonstopEurotrip Bhai Ji 2028......
The wait is a BIT to long.....
also 28 platforms for 500k people is excessiive
Why?

Don't forget - NO smoking on the train or you risk being banned from travelling high-speed for life!
(Along with a long list of other reasons for being banned from all high-speed rail and air travel which affects ~10 million Chinese citizens - one of the reasons for the passport check, of course.)
Excellent video focusing on the trains and journey. Best wishes for the New Year and next 100k. : )
Eeeeeek 😆
@@NonstopEurotrip Ah... I remember this post and your reaction! By coincidence, there's actually a video clip of such a train announcement warning about such restrictions/bans if you smoke. Not sure about the "180 days" mentioned there, or the full regulations, but it's definitely a thing!
If you're interested, see from 10:17 on the "China's High Speed Rail is Deadly" video just uploaded by Winston / serpentza.
(Needless to say, he's not a fan of the PRC for personal and other reasons! Always good to pull in as many viewpoints as possible, I've found. : )
Cheers!
