The fast train took nearly 5 hours to cover the 1300km from Beijing to Shanghai. Very exciting!
It ran mostly on dedicated, elevated railways.
This is the dining car. The display in the back reads the current speed: 303km/h.
The biggest excitement was yet to come. This maglev monorail reached a top speed of 432km/h, but for a very short time, given the total length of track of only 30km. It links the Shanghai to Pudong airport.
