我国启动研发时速600公里磁浮技术
China Railway Rolling Stock Corporation (CRRC), the country's largest rail transportation equipment maker, will start researching and developing a magnetic levitation (maglev) train that can run 600 km per hour, which would be faster than any other maglev train currently in operation.
我国最大的轨道交通设备制造商中国中车将启动时速600公里的磁浮列车的研发工作，这一速度超过目前运行的其他任何磁浮列车的速度。The company said it will build a maglev rail line no less than 5 km long to test the train.
中国中车日前表示，将建设一条长度不小于5公里的高速磁浮试验线。It will also develop maglev trains that travel at 200 km per hour, with the goal of establishing domestic technology and standard systems for new-generation medium- and high-speed maglev transportation that can be applied globally, said Sun Bangcheng, a CRRC official.
中国中车一位名叫孙帮成的负责人表示，该公司还将建造时速200公里的磁浮列车，以形成我国自主并具有国际普遍适应性的新一代中、高速磁浮交通系统技术体系及标准规范体系。
In addition, the firm will kick off research and development of cross-border high-speed trains that can run 400 km per hour and alternate between different track gauges ranging from 600 mm to 1676 mm.
此外，中国中车将启动时速400公里跨国联运高速列车的研发工作，该列车能够在600毫米到1676毫米的不同轨距的铁路上运营。Such trains will consume 10% less energy than the country's 350 km/h bullet trains currently in use, said Sun.
孙帮成表示，相比我国现有的时速350公里的高速列车，此列车的能耗将降低10%。China has seen rapid development of its high-speed railways in recent years, with their total length exceeding 20,000 km, the world's longest high-speed rail network.
近年来，中国的高速铁路发展迅速，其总长度超过20000公里，构成了世界上最长的高速铁路网。The country started operation of its first home-grown maglev rail line in May, with trains running at a maximum speed of 100 km per hour.
我国在5月份开始运行了首列国产磁悬浮铁路，该列车运行最高时速为每小时100公里。
