<< review queue entry 74240 - submitted by 'monigeria' >> Just saw this on the change log. I think it's better if we make it clear that 动车 is first and foremost a high-speed train. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-speed_rail_in_China D-class (动车; dòngchē; 'electrical multiple unit') train service features EMU trains running at lower speeds, whether on high-speed or non-high-speed track. D-class trains can vary widely in actual trip speed. The non-stop D211 train from Guiyang East to Guangzhou South on the Guiyang–Guangzhou HSR, a line with designed speed of 250 km/h (155 mph), averages 207 km/h (129 mph) for the trip. The D312 EMU sleeper train between Beijing South and Shanghai on the non-high speed Beijing–Shanghai railway averages 121 km/h (75 mph) for the trip. << follow-up of change log entry 79135 >> [dong4 che1 zu3] |
