About:Beijing - Guangzhou High Speed Train
High speed train with connector cabin to save time
Is it true that the high speeds (from BJ to GZ) has an innovative system of picking and unloading passengers at any station to save a lot of travelling time ?
I have viewed a video which explains as follows:
The train that never stops at a station
A brilliant new Chinese railway innovation - get on & off the high speeds without stopping. VERY COOL CONCEPT !
No time is wasted. The high speeds are moving all the time. If there are 30 stations between BJ and GZ , just stopping and accelerating again at each station will waste both energy and time.
A mere 5 min stop per station (elderly passengers cannot be hurried) will result in a total loss of 5 min x 30 stations or 2.5 hours of journey time!
