Thanks for information provided by you.
It will be good if you can provide a good information on DEMU, EMU & MEMU.
Indian Railways have over 10,000 DEMU/EMU coaches & you provided no information on these coaches & I think these 10,000 coaches transport much more number of people than 50,000 passenger coaches.
I searched for information on MUs on net but couldn't find any good information about these except IRFCA but that is general information & outdated.

Why does it have anything to do with maglev?

Aren't you referring HSR ( maglev in china)..[/QUOTE]
Bro, I think you have some misunderstanding.
HSR and maglev are two different things in China.
In terms of maglev, China has two lines, one in Shanghai, and on in Changsha, both connecting downtown to the local airport.
China's 19000+km HSR is standard-gauge railways with designed speed from 200 to 350km/h.
It's part of China' railway system, not an isolated system.

@anant_s @Ankit Kumar 002 @PARIKRAMA Very enjoy this thread so far. Quite few threads here are trolling-free. I've learnt a lot from this thread.

Some photos my friend sent me from his Indian trip, exclusively on railways.

I HAVE DONE RESEARCH ON SUPER CONDUCTIVITY.. I didn't watched the video you posted... I thought you are talking about stability of cars in maglev... I'm pretty much aware of these differences which you are trying to point out ..

Actually if try to erect a coin on maglev trains in Shanghai, quite impossible. When the maglev train makes a turn, you will feel yourself one side significantly higher than another.

What did he say about his trip? Be honest.

Maybe better measure is how still the meniscus of water in a cup stays (even when its tilted) given the higher banking effects in a maglev system's curves that you correctly state as an issue with the coin.

Anyways I think its safe to say that newer gen high speed rail is getting very smooth ride quality. I don't think one will physically feel that much difference in a maglev.

His purpose was to see Indian railway, very exciting journey for him.

Maglev are highly stable than the conventional Indian train cars ... not talking about in turning..

India is not a Big magnet which can attract all the FDI of the world.
Tiny winy Hong Kong attracts 103 billion vs India's 34

Almost all of that is mainland laundering money through Hong Kong

I'd advise you to ignore this troll.

He normally loses interest in the forum when everyone ignores his posts....then he returns after a hiatus.

 

[ashok321]

What a crap of a post sans facts & logic.

Mainland China monitors all financial activities of HK which is part of China.
And more, both China & HK are signatory of intergovernmental foundation viz; Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering or FATF.

Its like laundering money from Gujarat to Maharashtra under the watchful eyes of center.
