China approves railway project linking Nanchang, Huangshan

2018-01-05 14:05 Xinhua Editor: Gu Liping

China's top economic planner has approved a railway project linking Nanchang in eastern China's Jiangxi province and Huangshan in Anhui province, with a total investment of 48.57 billion yuan ($7.47 billion).

Spanning 286 kilometers, the project will have nine stops, with a maximum speed at 350 kilometers per hour, according to the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC).

The four-year project is expected to facilitate development along the Yangtze river economic belt, the NDRC said.

China spent 801 billion yuan on railway projects and put 3,038 km of new tracks into operation in 2017, meeting its annual targets of 800 billion yuan of investment and 2,100 km of new lines, according to the China Railway Corporation.

By the end of 2017, total mileage of China's railways in operation reached 127,000 km. Among the total, high-speed railways rose to 25,000 km from 22,000 km at the end of 2016.

The growth of railway construction projects came at a time when the country is enduring continuous deceleration in growth of fixed-asset investment.

In the first 11 months of 2017, fixed-asset investment grew 7.2 percent year-on-year, down from 8.3 percent during the same period in 2016.

Bad thing is, the connecting subway has been delayed to 2019........
There will be three subways in total...
The new Guiyang-Chongqing rapid railway (200km/h) will be inaugurated on the same day.

For 2018, we can only use public buses....
There will be buses like West Station-Airport....

Anyway, it will be a problem....

It's not easy for Chongqing to build metro.....

Progress in leaps and bounds.

It at times becomes difficult to remember (or understand) the length China has come in a short period of time as most people now take these things for granted -- as if they were always there and normal.

This is the New Normal, and I think it is normal to be like that. :D

The rhythm of an overnight green train running on 12.5m track has become a distant memory. What China has accomplished in one generation would take other countries three or more. Now, let's talk about the good governance!

CRRC-Bombardier joint venture BST begins to manufacture CR400 Fuxing

JV? I thought IP of CR400 is fully Chinese, why CRRC needs Bombardier?

Because that factory has more Chinese shares than Bombardier's.
They just buy license from CRRC to manufacture CR400.
Considering the shortage of CR400, why not?

China develops subway car made of carbon fiber

A leading Chinese train car maker said Sunday that it has developed subway train made of carbon fiber, which is more durable and energy saving.

CRRC Changchun Railway Vehicles said the new subway car is 35 percent lighter than traditional metal ones, which can effectively improve its carrying capacity, save energy and operational cost, and reduce the wear and tear on the subway line.

As carbon fiber can better resist fatigue, corrosion, and UV radiation, subway cars made of such material are expected to have an operational life of at least 30 years, said experts with CRRC Changchun.

In addition, the thermal and sound insulation performance of carbon fiber is also better than traditional metal, which makes the new car more energy-saving and less noisy during operation.

During the development of the new car, CRRC Changchun relied totally on its own technological innovation, thus owning the full intellectual rights of the new product, said experts with the company.

A leading trainmaker in the world, CRRC Changchun has more than 18,000 employees and annually manufactures more than 8,000 trains. Its products have been exported to more than 20 countries and regions, including the United States, Australia and Brazil.

Amazing. This may significantly increase cost efficiency of public transportation.
