00:00By the end of 2014, total mile-age of Chana Railway had reached 112,000 kilometers.
00:20In 2014, Chana Railway completed a passenger traffic of 2.32 billion and a freight traffic
00:28of 3.07 billion tons, ranking the first in the world.
00:34While effort is made in construction of conventional railways, since the 1990s, China started technical
00:41research and engineering practice on high-speed railway.
00:45The Qinghuandao Shenyang Passenger Dedicated Line, constructed in August 1999 and opened
00:51to traffic in October 2003, as well as the large-scale speed-up campaign on existing railways
00:59launched from 1997 to 2007, accumulated substantial experience for the development of high-speed
01:06railways in China.
01:08In 2004, the Chinese government approved the Mid- and Long-Term Railway Network Program,
01:14which draws a blueprint for Chana Railway in 2020, established a high-speed railway network
01:20with four north-south and four west-east corridors as backbones and opened a new chapter for the
01:27development of high-speed railways in China.
01:30Over the past ten years, Chana Railway has made a great leap forward from initial engineering
01:35practice to large-scale construction.
01:39By the end of 2014, the high-speed railways in service had reached 16,000 km.
01:47China became the country with the longest high-speed railway network, both in operation and under
01:52construction in the world.
01:54In August 2008, the first high-speed railway in China-Beijing-Tianjing Intercity Railway,
02:01running at 350 km per hour and crossing soft and loose soil area, opened to traffic.
02:08In June 2011, the Beijing-Shanghai High-Speed Railway entered service, which even created a speed
02:15record of 486.1 km in running test.
02:21In December 2012, the Harbin-Dalian High-Speed Railway, the first high-speed railway in the
02:28world, crossing extremely cold permafrost area, opened to traffic.
02:34In December 2012, the 2,298 km Beijing-Guanzhou High-Speed Railway, the longest high-speed
02:43railway in the world, crossing temperate and separate tropical zones and many rivers, opened
02:49to traffic.
02:50In December 2014, the 1,777 km Lanzhou-Urumuchi High-Speed Railway, the longest high-speed
03:00railway built in one-phase project, and a crossing desert and a strong wind zone, opened to traffic.
03:08It is expected that by the end of 2015, total mileage of high-speed railways in China will
03:14reach 19,000 km.
03:16By 2020, an express passenger railway network, jointly formed by high-speed and conventional
03:23railways, will reach more than 50,000 km, basically covering all cities, with a population of more
03:30than 500,000.
03:32On the basis of long-term scientific research and tests, China Railway learns foreign experience
03:38and insists on independent innovation, considering actual condition in China, having established
03:44a complete high-speed railway technological system.
03:48The survey and investigation, equipment development, construction and operational management have reached
03:55a leading level in the world.
03:57China has the experience in building high-speed railways in complicated geological and weather
04:02conditions, ballastless track and CWR track adaptive to various geological conditions, highway and
04:10a railway state bridge with the longest span in the world, the first railway bridge with
04:17up to six tracks in the world, long tunnels crossing metropolitan areas and the long rivers,
04:27and a number of transport hubs integrating bus, metro, light rail and airport with easy transfer.
04:37China has developed high-speed EMUs, with different speed and capable of meeting different operational
04:43requirements.
04:44Over 1,700 EMUs have entered commercial service.
04:49China Railway also has established a high-speed railway risk prevention and control system, capable
04:55of comprehensive inspection, monitoring and maintenance of bridge, signaling, OCS and other equipment.
05:02The comfortable, safe, reliable and fast high-speed railways are changing the traveling and living
05:13habits of the people.
05:17High-speed rail saves time and the logistic cost and drives the sustainable growth of railway
05:23traffic.
05:24From 2007 to 2014, EMU trains had accumulated a passenger traffic of 3.11 billion, of which
05:34the share in the total railway passenger traffic increased to 37.3% from 4.3%, becoming a major
05:43force serving railway passenger transport.
05:47The development of high-speed railways has promoted the industrialization and urbanization
05:51process, the time and space gap between regions and cities are filled, and the service scope
05:58of the railway covers more widely.
06:04Opening of high-speed railways also has promoted the tourism, catering, trade and service industries
06:10along the railway and in vicinity areas, created job opportunities and become an impetus boosting
06:16development of the tertiary industry.
06:19As a typical green mode of transportation, high-speed railways have well coped with the
06:24demand of China for ecological civilization.
06:28Since the reform and opening up, the high-speed railways in China have been maintaining a strong
06:33development momentum and have many advantages like safe, reliable, technologically sophisticated
06:40and cost-efficient, China Railway is willing to share our experience with the world to yield
06:47win-win outcome.
