The world is moving rapidly. In today’s era, if there is anything most precious, it is time. In such a situation, to save it, humans are building vehicles that are very fast. In this episode, today we will tell you about the fastest trains in the world. Along with this, we will also tell you in which country these trains run and how much distance they can travel in one hour.
Which Train Is The Fastest
The fastest train in the world is a bullet train. The name of this bullet train is Maglev. When this Chinese train runs, it seems like it is running at the speed of a bullet. You can estimate its speed because this train will pass in front of you, and you will not even be able to count its coaches. The high-speed bullet train we are talking about runs 600 kilometres per hour.
Which Train Was The Fastest Before This?
Even before this, the fastest train in the world was from China. China’s Shanghai Maglev was earlier the world’s fastest bullet train; its maximum speed was 430 kilometres per hour. This train usually works to transport passengers at 251 kilometres per hour.
Let us tell you, in the initial phase, Japan was the most popular in the whole world for high-speed trains, but ever since China entered this race, it has left the entire world behind. However, India has also come into this race, and in the coming time, it may leave China behind regarding high-speed trains.
How Do These Trains Go So Fast?
If you think that only the engine contributes to the high speed of these trains, then you are wrong. The most significant work behind the fast speed of these trains is done by their wheels, which are entirely different from ordinary trains. These wheels are not iron like normal wheels; instead, they are made of magnetic levitation and run on this technology. Due to this technology, these trains run at tremendous speed without making any noise.
