China
launched the world's longest high-speed rail route on Wednesday, the latest
milestone in the country's rapid and - sometimes troubled - super fast rail
network.
The opening of the new 2,298-kilometre (1,425-mile) line
between Beijing and Guangzhou means passengers will be whisked
from the capital to the southern commercial hub in just eight hours, compared
with the 22 hours previously required.
Trains will travel at an average speed of 300 kilometres per
hour over the line, which includes 35 stops in major cities such as Zhengzhou, Wuhan on the
Yangtze River and Changsha.
