The opening and operation of Lutong Railway has formed a subway network from Luohe via Fuyang, Lu 'an, Lujiang, Tongling and Huangshan to Jinhua and Wenzhou, and constructed another big channel connecting the north and south of East China.
High-speed railway, referred to as high-speed railway for short, refers to a railway system with high design standards and high speed for the safe running of trains. Its concept is not limited to tracks, let alone trains.
The speed of high-speed rail
High-speed rail has different regulations in different countries, different times and different scientific research and academic fields. The Code for Design of High-speed Railway issued by China National Railway Administration defines high-speed railway as a newly-built passenger dedicated railway with a design speed of 250 km/h to 350 km/h and running the standard gauge of EMU trains.
China high-speed railway is limited to national railway lines. Although the design speed of Shanghai maglev track line is 430km/h, which exceeds the railway speed standard of any country, it does not belong to the category of conventional high-speed railway because it has no national railway nature and is neither managed by the national railway department nor connected with the national railway network.
