Well, it is so sad to know the truth that even the bottom class in China can often been seen in High Speed trains. It is not luxurious at all, at least not for the economic class tickets. And Nobody takes a train every day, unless you mean the metropolitan railway.I will not be happy if the govt use my money for building the high-speed rail for rich man than average person ...
can tell that's the govt investment or private investment ?
Anyway, the benefit of this high-speed rail is basically not for majority of Chinese people !!!

T36/T37Zhengzhou 02:43 Guangzhou 19:23 16h40m 1605 190/- 325/337/348 507/530
T266/T263Zhengzhou 03:35 Guangzhou 18:58 15h23m 1605 190/ -325/337/348 507/530
I dont believe the high speed rail will have same fare with low speed ( 100km / h ) rail as above. 530 vs 600 RMB for 1605 km ...
1st of all, clearly the cost of building the high speed railway in China is lower than that in Japan, due to many aspects of reasons. So as to the tickets, I don't know, but it should be cheaper in China.When it comes to a Cost Benefit Analysis, even if the state owned railway company will lose money in the first a few years or decades, it is worthwhile since it brings priceless value to the economy. Time is money, I will regret if you cannot understand that simple thing.How many percent of traffic volume for bullet train ?
Is its price high or normal ?? in comparing to air ticket ?
2.5 x conventional train ticket ... quite high , ??
I think high speed train must compete with lower speed train by performance ..
that's unclear to say what's better ...
Especially true to an average income lever country like China ...
In Japan, highspeed show its superior performance because Japanese hourly wages much higher ...
How much a normal worker or office in China earn for 1 hour ?
If it's not too high then why they must save 30min - 1 hour of travelling by paying high for highspeed?
