就喜欢你这种低调含蓄不着痕迹的炫耀
As in Wuhan, a tier 2 city but in the lower level of tier 2 bracket (Hangzhou and Nanjing in the upper level),
we have two major CRH depots and more to be built.
Even the smaller one is bigger than this one.....
Nearly 800 bullet train services per day during Chinese spring festival this year.....
Not just a depot, but also an important indoor maintenance facility is attached.....

52 CRH Depots in China so far (all in full use now, more are under construction)
Shanghai Hongqiao Depot is the biggest, just outside Shanghai Hongqiao Transport Hub.
165 standard units (one unit = 8 cars) belong to this depot.
Units from other railway bureau sometimes will also receive maintenance there.
It has intensive maintenance capacity, while some depots can only handle primary maintenance.

This is very good news for tourists to Hainan Island.
Tourists are able to get to various places in Hainan Island faster. This would help tourism on the island.
By the way, I am looking forward to some mainland HSR lines running at 400 kph.
When that happens, I may make another trip to China.

From 200km/h to 250km/h is not a small step.
More photos on Hainan Island HSR after the speed hike.
Such a busy intercity HSR!

High-speed trains' daily maintenance
CRI, February 3, 2017
Daily maintenance is required to keep China's high-speed rail system running smoothly during the Lunar New Year travel rush. [Photo: Xinhua]
Every CRH (China Railway High-speed) train runs more than 9,600 km per day. CRH maintenance workers in the Zhengzhou railway sector are like "medical doctors" for trains, checking operating status carefully every day. [Photo: Xinhua]
At CRH, every train is required to be double-checked before getting on its way, and each inspection takes 2 hours to finish. [Photo: Xinhua]
High speed trains have become a major transportation mode for people visiting family for Chinese New Year. [Photo: Xinhua]
Maintenance and inspection procedures fall into two categories: one with high-voltage power on and the other one with power unplugged. The body of each train needs to be cleaned and all high-voltage equipment needs to be checked. Each inspector wears a body camera to record the whole inspection process. [Photo: Xinhua]

Haunting aerial photos of train maintenance center go viral
2017/01/23
WIN
Eerie aerial photographs of high-speed trains at a maintenance yard in Wuhan, capital of Hubei Province, have gone viral ahead of the Spring Festival travel rush.
In the photos, the metallic trains are arranged in rows and starkly lit by beams of white light. At the front of the trains, bright red lights glow ominously.
The photos were shot on January 13, the first day of the Spring Festival transport rush, as was reported on people.com.cn.
High-speed trains enter the center every night for maintenance. The facility is also known as a “hospital for high-speed trains.” There are 52 such centers across China intended to ensure the normal operation of more than 2,000 high-speed trains.
National railway passengers are expected to reach 356 million during the 40-day Spring Festival travel season, according to China Railway Corporation. More than 178 million passengers are expected to travel by high-speed train.
