The trains, which are 440 meters long and can seat 1,283 passengers, are the longest high-speed trains in China.

With a maximum speed of 350 kilometers per hour, the trains will be deployed on the Beijing-Shanghai railway next month.

Two other Fuxing trains running at maximum speeds of 250 km/h and 160 km/h will also be deployed on the network. The slower version will replace older trains next month.

Zhang Bo, a researcher at the center, said the lower-speed Fuxing trains aim to provide a more comfortable travel experience for passengers.
