ABSTRACT

China is building the world's largest and fastest high-speed rail networks, providing commercial train services with an average speed of 200km/h or higher (the record is 416.6km/h during a trial run this September). By 2012, China will have a high-speed rail network of 13,000km.

"On October 26, the first day of Shanghai-Hangzhou high-speed railway opening, China Telecom announced that, although the top speed of Shanghai-Hangzhou high-speed railway is 352 km/h, Tianyi 3G Live TV has been realized in the high-speed carriage, which rewrite the record of wireless network speed on China's fastest high-speed railway."
