To be accurate, Z trains are trains using Type 25T Passenger Cars(160km/h), for Z trains are not fully non-stop at night, like Z236/7-Z235/8 stops at 3 o'clock at Hunan. Some Z trains stop at night in order to switch locomotives, and some Z trains are simple upgrade of T trains that stop at night. Similarly, T trains use 25K cars(140km/h) and K trains use 25G cars(120km/h).
Another railfan seen! 一见车迷就高兴
Lol 2 dudes just staring out the window in the corridor. Melancholic.
Great video. I'll be doing a couple of Chinese hi-speed journeys in the next few weeks, and I can't wait. Thanks for highlighting what to expect - booked through China DIY Travel by the way!!
The deluxe soft sleeper is just awesome. Hell of a privacy.
Price is awesome too,😂😂😂 almost equal to the flight ticket for a same distance trip😂😂😂
Gr8 video... Gud job... Thxs👍
But there are still some trains using 25B or even 22B cars. Some K trains use 25B cars(120km/h) as well, but these cars are upgraded to fit AC devices inside.
Love China from India.
Awesome
Things tend to change. They are upgrading all T trains to Z trains which means Z trains do have a number of stops sometime. Also, most number-only trains nowadays use the same rolling-stock as K trains, which means they do get A/C and modern facilities.
good job
Some have door in hard sleeper, Seen on Tieba but really few
The Guangzhou-Hong Kong soft seat can lean back and also turn
The trains that has only numbers should be slow or has no A/C or both
Hard to believe there are empty sleeper and seat trains.
Many of those who chasing the time would choose the bullet one rather than regular. Cost too much time
We call them "绿皮车/红皮车"(old green/red color train).
uangianlap But now they are all green lol.
Hi dear..i want go to xi'an-beijing with hard sleeper, with my mother age 68, can i choose lower bed?
The booking systems does not allow choosing a specific seat or bed. However, if you book early when tickets are released then the odds are good.
I'd rather have the elders take the lower beds
They will give anyone above 65 lower bed.
Who is "they"? How do they know the client's age unless you are Chinese in which case it is on the id card.?@@PM_ME_MESSIAEN_PICS
@@ChinaDIYTravel The online algorithms will automatically allocate the lower bunk to the elderly person. You have to write down your date of birth when you register for an account, before ordering your ticket.
These trains are very similar to those local India trains.
Hahahahahaha.......but if compare both inner condition and hygiene are huge huge different.
@@williamwongkimping3998 not all Indians train are bad Inside only few of them are.
All trains and all levels in China have 24-hour air conditioning. It's heated in winter and cool air in summer.
@@user-ig8ox2ih5r 0:59 it says number trains in China do not have air conditioning 🙄
Actually Indian trains(AC class) are way better than China's regular trains. But China got high speed trains which get the most attention to
Nhhhhhhh
I hate normal trains. They’re slow. I’d rather take a bullet train
Arn'n¨t there any other trains in China than stupid fast or bullet trains? Or is it just the propaganda?
I don't understand what you are saying. Stupid trains? Propaganda?
There are bullet trains. These slow trains have been heavily reduced and on some lines eliminated outright forcing people to use the more expensive bullet trains
This video just showed an ordinary train,ordinary trains of CR include three class:K(ordinary fast),T(express),Z(direct express)
