我國啓動研發時速600公里磁浮技術

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.

我國最大的軌道交通設備製造商中國中車將啓動時速600公里的磁浮列車的研發工作，這一速度超過目前運行的其他任何磁浮列車的速度。

The company said it will build a maglev rail line no less than 5 km long to test the train.

中國中車日前表示，將建設一條長度不小於5公里的高速磁浮試驗線。

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.

中國中車一位名叫孫幫成的負責人表示，該公司還將建造時速200公里的磁浮列車，以形成我國自主並具有國際普遍適應性的新一代中、高速磁浮交通系統技術體系及標準規範體系。

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，中國中車將啓動時速400公里跨國聯運高速列車的研發工作，該列車能夠在600毫米到1676毫米的不同軌距的鐵路上運營。

Such trains will consume 10% less energy than the country's 350 km/h bullet trains currently in use, said Sun.

孫幫成表示，相比我國現有的時速350公里的高速列車，此列車的能耗將降低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.

近年來，中國的高速鐵路發展迅速，其總長度超過20000公里，構成了世界上最長的高速鐵路網。

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.

我國在5月份開始運行了首列國產磁懸浮鐵路，該列車運行最高時速爲每小時100公里。
