China Unveils 310mph (500kph) Bullet Train!
And I thought the Bugatti Veyron was fast! China has just unveiled its new "super-rapid" test train which is capable of traveling 310 miles per hour (500 kmph). The reveal, which took place over the weekend, is a positive move for the country that is suffering setbacks due to a fairly recent collision between two high-speed trains back in July. That crash killed over 40 people. Following the crash, the construction of new high-speed trains in China has since been a near halt... kind of like American trains have been since the dawn of the diesel engine...
