可变轨高速动车组下线
New train rolls in
能够在不同气候条件、不同轨距的铁路间运行的新一代可变轨高速动车组近日在吉林省长春市下线。
A new generation of high-speed trains that can adapt to different track gauges, widths, and climate conditions has been developed in Changchun, Jilin province.
该动车组由中车长春轨道客车股份有限公司研制，列车设计运营时速400公里，能够在不同轨距、不同供电制式标准的国际铁路间运行，能让国际旅行更便捷。
The new type of train, developed by CRRC Changchun Railway Vehicles Co, is designed with a top speed of 400 kilometers per hour. Its ability to run on international railways with different track gauges and power supply standards makes international rail travel much more practical.
该型号动车组还具备很强的环境适应性，能在零下50摄氏度至零上50摄氏度的温度区间内运行，这一新技术使其可在全球90%的铁路网上实现互联互通。
The train also features increased adaptability to environmental changes. It can operate in temperatures between -50 and 50 C. The train's new technologies mean it can be used on about 90 percent of the global railway network.
该型号动车组也更节能环保，列车在同等运行速度条件下人均能耗每公里降低10%，噪音降低2分贝。
The new train is also more environmentally friendly, reducing average energy consumption per kilometer by 10 percent as well as cutting noise levels by two decibels.
