Two intercity trains that feature both high speed and more convenience have started trial operation on a line in east China's Zhejiang Province.
CRRC Qingdao Sifang Company said the CRH6F train, an electric multiple unit (EMU) train with a speed of 160 km an hour, is composed of eight cars and has a maximum capacity of 2,000 passengers.
The company has delivered two such trains to the 48.7-km line linking the cities of Ningbo and Yuyao.
The company said that the CRH6F model combines the functions of high-speed trains and subway trains, and could cope with large passenger transport demand and swift boarding.
