China has begun testing CR450 prototypes, which is now the world’s fastest high-speed train. They are all powered by an advanced, water-cooled, permanent magnet traction system, as well as a reliable, high-stability bogie system.
For additional safety, the trains also come equipped with an advanced, multi-level emergency braking system, as well as over 4,000 sensors for the real-time monitoring of key systems, including car body, high-voltage pantograph, train control and fire detection systems. The prototypes – CR450AF and the CR450BF – both feature an eight-car formation with four powered and four non-powered carriages.

The CR450 introduces a new bogie enclosure design to minimize air resistance at high speeds, along with a streamlined low-drag, sharp-nosed front, aerodynamic windshields and lightweight materials. It integrates advanced noise reduction techniques across different areas and frequencies, reducing interior noise by 2 decibels and increasing passenger service space by 4 percent compared to its predecessors,” said China State Railway Group Co., Ltd. (China Railway).
