You're seriously going to laugh at a huge accident like this where 39 people died?

Sorry, you're right. I shouldn't be laughing... but at the same time, I gonna laugh at the Chinese engineer people who made that train. Cuz in media they insulted Japanese bullet train saying stuff like: Old, outdated, slow, trash and all negative stuff.

Yea it's sadly ironic :( I dunno the details of the accident but usually what's wrong with stuff in China is not design but quality control. Sounds like there were some issues with some contractors or something, or it might've been a design fault.

Do you know what they did after the crash? Destroy the evidence by crushed it & buried it right next to the wrecked area. Not figuring out what cause the wreck too detail, next day crush & bury project happened. Seriously WTF :iono:

Based on what I know, the train was designed and built by Siemens, a Germany company. However, the trick was that it was designed to run at 300 KM/H based on the contract, whereas the Chinese official insist to run it at 350 KM/H so that it is the best one in the world.

Maybe they should be tuning the cars to be running at 116% to its maximum recommended rating before messing with high speed train.

Wait what? I see pictures taken less than a day ago and the stuff is still there.
The government promised proper explanations, I really hope they can follow up on that.

So apparently the issue is that one train stalled because of loss of power in a storm, and what should've happened was the signaling equipment should tell the train behind it to stop. Instead it kept going and smashed into the back. I don't know how the power lines are set up but it's a little weird how one train can have no power and another on the exact same track has power.
