China High Speed Rail Video

On Friday, China unveils its high speed rail train that records a speed of 302 miles per hour (486 kilometers per hour). The line is due to open in 2012 and will halve the current travel time between the capital Beijing and Shanghai to five hours.

The project costs $32.5 billion and is part of a massive government effort to link many of China’s cities by high-speed rail and reduce overcrowding on heavily used lines.
