Also bullet trains are appropriate for relatively short distances <100km distances, not 500km like from mbs to nrb. At least they delivered on the train colours.   @hardwood, you lost me there, cant read between the lines...was it sarcasm?

you have to give it to the Chinese, they can do a nice job. That is why our SGR is more expensive coz apart from the reli, it included all the other infrastructure such as train stations, locomotives, coaches, wagons etc - and even land acquisition from mbs to nairobi.

The initial test run at just above 120kph, if the signaling system works as intended it means we will see nairobi to mombasa in under 4 hrs.
We wait and see

We wait and see How did the locomotive go over 120, when it redlines at 100? I have seen the locomotive myself and confirm this. Business opportunities are like buses,there's always another one coming

As you can see the maximum operating speed for this train is 170km/hr http://www.crrcgc.cc/qsy...783/s22470/t274187.aspx
